Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called on world governments to increase sanctions against Russia, because failing to do so would "allow" Russia to continue its attacks on Ukraine.
Russian troops are advancing to the battlefields of 2014 near Slavyansk and Kramatorsk to split Ukraine's eastern front, surround Kharkiv and reach the Dnieper River.

Ukraine has accused the Russian military of bringing mobile crematoria into the city to cover up its crimes against civilians.
