Russia and Ukraine’s fight for the last streets of Bakhmut – BBC News
The battle for the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut has been the longest and bloodiest of this war so far.
Western officials estimate between 20,000 and 30,000 Russian troops have been killed or wounded here, while Ukraine’s military has also paid a heavy price – and it still isn’t over.
Russia has been trying to capture Bakhmut for months, and it’s been a testament – so far – to Ukraine’s determination not to give ground.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

There are reasons why we aren't providing long range missile systems and aircraft – to prevent nuclear holocaust. I'm routing for Ukraine butI am sick of people shaming the US over not providing enough. How about say thank you? Show a little gratitude? Ukraine would be a Russian state right now were it not for us. We have overwheling poverty, a lack of affordable healthcare, a lousy education system, and yet every other week were giving a billion dollars of our hard earned tax money to Ukraine. Our tax money is providing all virtually all you're telling us isn't enough. This is just one more European mess we have to clean up because why? Russia is not invading us. In fact, we risk nuclear attack because we're arming Ukraine, giving military intelligence, and training Ukranians to fight.
