The Russian army is progressing with difficulty in places, but the bombardments continue unabated on several cities, and the ground fighting in the outskirts of kyiv or Mariupol continues.

Several loud explosions were heard at dawn in western Kyiv. A twelve-storey building was damaged in the Shevchenko district, but no report has yet been given, while a second curfew has been put in place since Tuesday.

Heavy fighting is still taking place on the northwestern outskirts, in and around the towns of Irpin, Hostomel and Boutcha.
Russian forces have intensified fighting in the Kyiv suburbs, notably around the town of Bucha in the northwest and the highway leading west toward Zhytomyr, Kyiv region head Oleksiy Kuleba said.

The mayor of kyiv, Vitali Klitschko, said in an interview with Le Monde:

“The city is ready to defend itself. People are ready. There is anger, rage, and there will be no panic (…). When we see what is happening elsewhere, like in Mariupol, the scenario of a Russian desire for the total destruction of kyiv is not excluded. »
