Russian missiles pounded cities across Ukraine early Thursday morning, according to authorities, sparking fires and killing at least two people, as Ukraine's president was in Washington to persuade U.S. lawmakers to provide more military support for the war effort.
At least six strikes damaged civilian infrastructure in the Slobidskyi district of Kharkiv, said regional Gov. Oleh Syniehubov. The city's mayor added that two people had been hospitalized.
An industrial zone was hit in the western region of Lviv, damaging buildings and starting a fire, but no information on casualties was immediately available, Klymenko added. "It's really important for members of Congress to be able to hear directly from the president about what he's facing in this counteroffensive," Kirby told reporters Wednesday, "and how he's achieving his goals, and what he needs to continue to achieve those goals."A humanitarian clown’s work in Ukraine
Republican Sen. Rand Paul — described recently by his own party's senior leader Mitch McConnell as an "isolationist" on foreign policy — rejected on Wednesday "funnelling billions of dollars, that have to be borrowed, into the meat grinder of Eastern Ukraine." Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said the decision would not affect NATO and U.S. weapons transfers through Poland.
