Ukraine vows to fight on in Bakhmut and inflict steep losses on Russia; China defends ties to Moscow:

Its back might be against the wall in Bakhmut, but Ukraine has vowed to continue its defense of the city in Donetsk and is sending reinforcements into the hottest spot in the war, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Monday.

In the process of defending the city in Donetsk, he added, Ukraine can inflict more losses on Russian forces.

Fighting in Bakhmut has been going on for around seven months and it's undoubtedly the scene of the fiercest fighting in Ukraine right now. Russian forces and mercenary units from the Wagner Group have been slowly advancing on, and into, Bakhmut and surrounding settlements in recent weeks. It's believed they now occupy areas on three sides of the city to the north, east and south.

EU agrees to start joint arms procurement of 1 billion dollars worth of ammunition:

EU countries on Wednesday agreed to speed up supplies of artillery rounds and buy more shells to help Ukraine but still have to work out how to turn these aims into reality.

Under a plan drawn up by foreign policy chief Josep Borrell, EU states would get financial incentives worth €1 billion ($1.06 billion) to send more of their artillery rounds to Ukraine while another €1 billion would fund joint procurement of new shells.

"There has been a general agreement on this procedure but there are questions pending. Everything has to be discussed in detail," Borrell said after a meeting of EU defense ministers in Stockholm also attended by their Ukrainian counterpart Oleksii Reznikov.

Russian forces claim progress in Bakhmut but no end in sight:

The battle for the city the Ukrainians have dubbed “fortress Bakhmut” has become emblematic of the way each side has tried to wear down the other. Russian forces must go through Bakhmut to push deeper into parts of the Donetsk province they do not yet control, though Western officials say that capture of the city is unlikely to change the course of the war.

The battle for Bakhmut has lasted six months and reduced the city with a prewar population of more than 70,000 to a smoldering wasteland. It’s not clear which side has paid a higher price.

Ukraine should be able to target nearly ever region of Russia. Its ridiculous to only fight in Ukraines backyard. Ordinary Russians need to see and feel what they are doing to the Ukraines. NOTE I said see and feel, not experience! The Ukraine must not start targeting civilians or civilian infrastructure. But military bases, airports, seaports and such.
