Russian Forces Kill Ukrainian Teenagers in Berdiansk During Military Advance on Bakhmut Flanks

Ukrainian forces have advanced on the flanks of Bakhmut in Donetsk Oblast up to one kilometer, while Russian forces attempted assaults in the Bakhmut, Lyman, and Marinka sectors in the east. Russia reportedly killed two Ukrainian teenagers in the occupied part of Zaporizhzhia Oblast, accusing them of preparing sabotage against the Russian military. Germany announced it would supply Ukraine with more military hardware, including anti-aircraft and air defense systems, to protect Ukrainian skies. Russia redeployed two separate airborne units from Ukraine to protect Moscow during a day-long Wagner Group’s armed rebellion.
