France, “hundreds of armored vehicles and missiles” soon in Kiev. Macron’s move –

France will deliver hundreds of armored vehicles and surface-to-air missiles to Ukraine. This was stated by French Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu in an interview with La Tribune Dimanche. Lecornu explained that the head of the Elysée Emmanuel Macron asked him to prepare a new aid package. Old, but still functional armored vehicles will be included, as well as new missiles. “The Ukrainian army has to defend a very long front line, which requires armored vehicles; this is absolutely critical for troop mobility and is part of Ukrainian demands,” the minister said. The announcement comes following weeks of discussions resulting from some statements by the French president, who suggested sending troops to Kiev.

But the war that is bringing the heart of Europe to its knees shows no signs of stopping. The death toll from Russian air strikes on Kharkiv and Lviv is two. This was reported by local authorities. On Telegram, the governor of Lviv Maksym Kozytskyi explained that a large fire broke out following a building was hit and a man died. In the Kharkiv region, however, authorities said an airstrike killed a 19-year-old man following a gas station was hit. Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky commemorated the victims of the Bucha massacre two years following the expulsion of the Russians from the city and the discovery of the crimes committed. “Over nine thousand war crimes were committed by the Russians,” said the Ukrainian leader, recalling the killing of 1,400 people in the war unleashed by Moscow.

“This war is of global importance. This is a war for the right to existence of our state and at the same time for the right to life of every person. For dignity for our people and for every nation seeking its own destiny “, he has declared. An observer mission from the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights documented last December that 73 civilians, 54 men, 16 women and two children, were killed by the Russians in Bucha from March 5 to 30.
