Russia still focused on Kyiv

The UK's Defence ministry says Kyiv, Ukraine's capital, remains Russia's priority and they expect a renewed push in the next few weeks, Qazet.az reports.

In the latest morning update, they said heavy fighting continued north of the capital but Russian advances from that direction had stalled.

"Despite the continued lack of progres, Kyiv remains Russia's primary miltary objective and they are likely to prioritise attempting to encircle the city over the coming weeks."
