Russian Forces Advance, Target Railways as Kyiv Awaits Weapons.

Russian forces are advancing in eastern Ukraine, targeting railways and pressing against defensive lines in the Donetsk region, according to US and UK officials. The Ukrainian forces, awaiting US weaponry, have seen Russia make grinding progress along the front. However, the US has confirmed a $6 billion commitment to provide Ukraine with weapons, and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg expressed confidence in Ukraine's ability to repel Russia's advances with additional support. Russia has also escalated missile and drone attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure and targeted military objects and logistics. [Extracted from the article]
