Russia struck key Ukrainian cities in the south and east overnight, including the strategic port of Odessa, as Congress is set to begin debating a nearly $40 billion aid package for Ukraine on Tuesday.
President Biden, who separately signed a historic bill into law that will expedite the process of sending military aid to Kyiv, urged lawmakers to approve the aid — which is now almost $7 billion more than what his administration requested. Biden said he was concerned that Russian President Vladimir Putin “doesn’t have a way out” of the war despite failing to divide the NATO military alliance or European Union.
The volley of Russian missiles resulted in casualties in Odessa and included three Kinzhal hypersonic missiles, a Ukrainian official said. But the Pentagon assessed that Russian forces do not have the capability to launch a ground or maritime offensive against the Black Sea gateway.
Russian forces continued to assault the embattled Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol, Ukrainian officials said, estimating that about 1,000 of the shattered port city’s last remaining fighters are still holed up there, with hundreds injured.

I am disappointed that the Times wrote this story since even a basic comparison of maps show Russia has lost ground from its initial invasion.
Remember when Kyiv was going to fall the first weekend of the invasion?
Unfortunately almost 60 Republican House Members of the Putin Caucus voted against aid to the Ukraine 🇺🇦 like the Leader of their Party told them to.
I strongly disagree with this article and the assumptions of how this war is going. The story is a classic example of the media’s obsession with both sides reporting. Even when one side is pure propaganda.
