Quick Glance: Russia Takes Command of Sievierodonetsk, Ukraine Officials Resign
  • Serhiy Gaidai, the regional governor of Luhansk, claimed that after days of severe battle between Russian and Ukrainian forces, Moscow's soldiers control the majority of the city but have not surrounded it.

  • Meanwhile, European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell stated on Tuesday that an EU embargo on most Russian oil imports will result in Russia receiving "less resources, less financial resources to feed the war machine."

  • The embargo prevents Russian oil from being transported by sea while exempting oil imported via pipelines.

  • Ukrainian politicians have long advocated for a restriction on Russian oil imports in order to deny Russia revenue that could be used to finance its military effort.

Quick Glance: The United States is providing powerful rocket systems to Ukraine to combat Russia. Here's why it's important.
  • According to Phil Wasielewski, a fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute in Philadelphia, the devices will boost Ukrainian forces in the Donbas, where the fight has "turned into an artillery duel."

  • US authorities have been debating whether to send the MLRS to eastern Ukraine for weeks, owing to the weapons' long capabilities, which may allow Ukrainian forces to fire directly into Russian territory.

  • He claimed that it was not too late for the weaponry to assist Ukrainian forces in defending locations and halting future Russian advances in the Donbas.

  • Massive fire precedes Russian advances.
