Msaidizi mkuu wa rais wa Ukraine ameambia BBC kuwa kati ya wanajeshi 100 hadi 200 wa Ukraine wanauawa itani kila siku.
Mykhaylo Podolyak alisema Ukraine inahitaji mamia ya mifumo ya silaha za Magharibi ili kusawazisha uwanja na Urusi katika eneo la mashariki la Donbas.
Pia alisema Kyiv haiko tayari kuanza tena mazungumzo ya amani na Moscow. Wanajeshi wa Ukraine wanakabiliwa na mashambulizi ya mara kwa mara huku majeshi ya Urusi yakijaribu kuchukua udhibiti wa Donbas nzima.
"Vikosi vya Urusi vimetumia kila aina ya silaha nzito dhidi yetu ikiwa ni pamoja na mifumo mingi ya kurusha roketi na anga," Bw Podolyak alisema.
Alirudia ombi la Ukraine la kutaka silaha zaidi kutoka kwa nchi za Magharibi, akisema kwamba "ukosefu kamili wa usawa" kati ya majeshi ya Urusi na Ukraine ndio sababu ya kiwango kikubwa cha vifo vya wanajeshi wa nchi hiyo.

Halafu anakuja mpuuzi mmoja anasema Russia atapoteza hii vita
======================================================
President Vladimir Putin compared himself to Peter the Great, the emperor who led Russia’s 18th-century territorial expansion, in a speech that underscored his revanchist ambitions. “It’s impossible — do you understand — impossible to build a fence around a country like Russia,” Putin
said Thursday about efforts to constrain its economy.
He also suggested the West would remain reliant on Russian energy for some time, despite concerted efforts to slash fossil fuel imports from the country after the invasion.
Ukraine is taking heavy blows on the battlefield and losing between 100 and 200 fighters daily, an aide to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said. Those figures are sharply higher than recent estimates provided by other officials. The eastern city of Severodonetsk, the locus of the Russian war effort, is under such intense bombardment that evacuation is impossible for the roughly 10,000 civilians trapped there, its mayor said Thursday. The Kremlin’s forces also advancing toward the cities of Slovyansk and Kramatorsk, where
the boom of artillery could be heard on streets.
A Kremlin-aligned official in Luhansk, the eastern region that is almost fully under Russian occupation, said Ukrainian grain will soon be shipped to Russia via rail, with an initial batch leaving as early as Friday. Kyiv and its Western partners have regularly blasted Moscow for looting the Ukrainian harvest, and Zelensky on Thursday called on the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization to expel Russia.
