The battle also continues in the area of the Gostomel airport, which the enemy has been trying to capture for the second day.
The Ukrainian side published data on losses for the first day. Russian troops lost 450 killed, 7 planes, 7 helicopters and more than 100 armored vehicles.
So Russia has committed a crime in which for many years it has been accusing the United States - the bombing of the capital of a European state.
