'We must not let up in supporting Ukraine,' says NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg.

KYIV, Ukraine – The war in Ukraine could last for years, the head of NATO said on Sunday, June 19, as Russia stepped up its assaults after the European Union recommended that Kyiv become a candidate to join the bloc.

This meant ensuring “Ukraine receives weapons, equipment, ammunition, and training more rapidly than the invader,” Johnson wrote in an opinion piece in London’s“Time is the vital factor,” he wrote. “Everything will depend on whether Ukraine can strengthen its ability to defend its soil faster than Russia can renew its capacity to attack.”

“As a result of artillery fire and an assault, the enemy has partial success in the village of Metolkine, trying to gain a foothold,” it said in a Facebook post late on Saturday. They reported shelling further west in Poltava and Dnipropetrovsk, saying on Saturday that three Russian missiles destroyed a fuel storage depot in the town of Novomoskovsk, wounding 11 people.
