Russia’s Vladimir Putin seems to be undeterred when it comes to the further destruction of Ukraine.
The Russian leader is leaving no stone unturned to lead a bloody offensive against Ukraine.
Continuing its goals of complete destruction of Ukraine’s military capabilities, Russia reiterated that its anti-Nazi campaign is going as planned.
Although, Ukraine too has shown stiff resistance when it comes to invasion of its territory.
Also, it incurred significant losses on Russian troops and tanks.
But now the invading troops are focusing on the eastern Donbas region. This is where Ukraine had claimed that a poisonous substance had been dropped on its troops.
It is not yet clear what kind of substance was it but Western officials warned that any use of chemical weapons by Russia could see a serious escalation.
In the last six weeks since Russia began the invasion, its troops have also lost their lives. Several thousand also accused them of killing civilians among other war crimes.
Vladimir Putin insists that his invasion aims to protect the people in parts of eastern Ukraine. This is a region controlled by Moscow-backed rebels so as to ensure Russia’s own security.
He clears the stance saying that Russia “had no other choice” but to launch this “special military operation.
Mariupol, a strategic port city in the Donbas has almost fallen in the fight.
