Associated Press | Russian forces shell Ukraine’s No. 2 city and menace Kyiv
Russian forces shelled Ukraine's second-largest city on Monday, rocking a residential neighborhood, and closed in on the capital, Kyiv, in a 17-mile convoy of hundreds of tanks and other vehicles, as talks aimed at stopping the fighting yielded only an agreement to keep talking.
The country's embattled president said the stepped-up shelling was aimed at forcing him into concessions.
Military Times | More US troops could head to Europe amid Russian invasion of Ukraine, Pentagon says
The 14,000 U.S. troops activated in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine may not be the last, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby told reporters on Monday.
The U.S. has activated thousands of troops to reassure allies since early this month, including a as-yet-undetermined number who will deploy in support of the NATO Response Force, activated for the first time in its history on Thursday.
