Russia says 63 soldiers killed after Ukrainian strike in Donetsk region

One Russian pro-war military blogger known as Rybar, who has more than one million subscribers on the Telegram messaging app, said more than 100 people had been wounded in the strike and that rubble was still being cleared.

Reuters was unable to verify the battlefield accounts, but was able to confirm the location of the video from the nearby buildings and road layout seen in the footage, although not the date that it was filmed. Meanwhile, Russian drones targeted infrastructure in Ukraine’s capital and surrounding areas on Monday, damaging energy facilities and causing some power outages, officials said, as Russia extended its bombardment into the second day of 2023.

But in a new year’s speech, Russian president Vladimir Putin signalled no let-up in his assault on Ukraine. “Russians launched several waves of Shahed drones. Targeting critical infrastructure facilities. Air defence is at work,” he said on the Telegram messaging app.“There are emergency power outages in the city,” he said on the Telegram messaging app.

Russia, which denies targeting civilians, has since claimed to have annexed about a fifth of Ukraine.Ukraine has fought back with western military support, driving Russian forces from more than half the territory they seized. In recent weeks, the front lines have been largely static, with thousands of soldiers dying in intense warfare.
