  • A senior Ukrainian official said Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov is not expected to be replaced this week in a government shakeup amid a growing corruption scandal
  • There's no sign of Ukraine retreating from the embattled eastern city of Bakhmut, the leader of Russia's Wagner mercenary group said. A Ukrainian military official said the landscape provides natural defenses that make it an "unwinnable fortress."
