And when the world ignores it, the monsters decide that it is the world that has to adapt to them. The ministry said that the Russian ambassador was summoned in a protest over the "brutal aggression on Ukraine and numerous crimes committed (there)". "The Russian party was informed about the reduction of administrative-technical staff of the Russian Federation's embassy in Zagreb," the statement said The Ukrainian military command said Sunday that the Russian troops have continued attempts to break Ukrainian defences near Izyum, southeast of Kharkiv. It reported that Russia was sending reinforcements to Izyum while continuing the shelling of Kharkiv. The military added that the Russians also continued their attempts to take control of Mariupol, the Sea of Azov port that has been besieged by Russian forces for nearly 1 month. The tour by the Shakhtar Donetsk club aims to raise money for Ukraine's military in the war against Russia, and also help Ukrainian refugees displaced by the war. Ukraine said on Monday that tens of thousands of people have likely been killed in Russia's assault on Mariupol and Russian forces have slowed down evacuations from the besieged southeastern city, where conditions are desperate. Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said Sunday that the military used air-launched missiles to hit Ukraine's S-300 air defense missile systems in Starobohdanivka in the southern Mykolaiv region and at an airbase in Chuhuiv in the eastern Kharkiv region. He made the comments in an interview with The Associated Press a day after at least 52 people were killed in a strike on a train station in the eastern city of Kramatorsk, and as evidence of civilian killings came to light after Russian troops failed to seize the capital where he has hunkered down, Kyiv.“No one wants to negotiate with a person or people who tortured this nation. North Korea's minister of foreign affairs on Monday denounced last week's suspension of Russia from the UN Human Rights Council, calling it an "unreasonable act" led by the United States and the West to maintain political hegemony. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Saturday that he is committed to pressing for peace despite Russian attacks on civilians that have stunned the world, and he renewed his plea for more weapons ahead of an expected surge in fighting in the country’s east. Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski was at the site Monday and said that a bailiff had entered the two apparently empty buildings, dubbed spyville by Warsaw residents, to check their condition and to mark them as seized by the Town Hall. It is very symbolic that we are closing this procedure of many years now, at the time of Russia's aggression on Ukraine, Trzaskowski said on Twitter. Russia's Embassy, which had the tall apartment blocks built in the 1970s, has been refusing court orders to pay lease or to hand it over. Welcoming India's humanitarian support for the people in Ukraine, Biden said that India and the US will continue close discussions on the war in Ukraine. "This morning, bailiffs came to our diplomatic property at 100 Sobieskiego Street in Warsaw and ordered the transfer of the building to the Polish state treasury on behalf of Warsaw City Hall," Russia's RIA news agency quoted Andreev as saying.

Russia-Ukraine war live updates: Zelenskyy warns of offensive in ... (NBC News)

Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer is set to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Monday, following a meeting with Ukraine's leader in ...

Borrell said E.U. foreign ministers would discuss the “brutal aggression of the Russian troops” and how to respond. The World Bank also emphasized that support to countries hosting refugees fleeing the war "will be critical." It did not identify the country by name, but Slovakia announced Friday that it had donated its S-300 air defense system to Ukraine. Team members are "experts in crime scenes and victim identification," the announcement said. Kirby appeared to be responding to a single Telegram message from Azov, an ultra-nationalist faction of the Ukrainian National Guard that's often described as a regiment or battalion. He recounted seeing a 4-year-old shot twice in the stomach while fleeing with his family, who is expected to live. The Russian Embassy, which had the tall apartment blocks built in the 1970s, has been refusing court orders to pay the lease or to hand it over. He said two-thirds of the children in Ukraine have been displaced. Kara-Murza, a well-known critic of Putin, survived what he said was his second poisoning in 2017. “Please know that getting her home safely continues to be our top priority and while we are facing an extraordinarily complex challenge, there is strength in community, especially the WNBA.” “I clearly told him that his attitude toward war is in no way even remotely shared,” Nehammer said at a news conference, adding that it is an invasion, according to Reuters. NBC News has not verified the numbers of deaths.

Russia could use phosphorus bombs in Mariupol, UK warns; Austrian leader to meet Putin. Follow our live updates ... This is CNBC's live blog tracking Monday's ...

In a statement after the meeting, Nehammer said the discussion with Putin was "very direct, open and tough." "We have massive indications of war crimes," Baerbock said ahead of a meeting with European ministers in Luxembourg, Reuters reported. For Ukraine, the World Bank report estimates that over half of the country's businesses are closed, while others still open are operating at well under normal capacity. The threat to children in Ukraine extends far beyond death and injury, Fontaine noted. It is a regime of murderers, and it is important to say it out loud," Kara-Murza said. He called it "tragic" that "it took a large-scale war in the middle of Europe, which Vladimir Putin is now conducting against Ukraine, for most western leaders to finally open their eyes to the true nature of this regime." We hope that the ongoing discussions between Russia and Ukraine will lead to peace." The affected areas include Saltivka, Pyatihatky, Kholodna Hora, Pisochyn, Zolochiv, Balakliya and Derhachi. The reason for this is that New Delhi relies upon Moscow for military hardware and for oil. That figure, updated as of April 10, includes 1,793 deaths and 2,439 injuries. Kara-Murza, a survivor of two suspected poisoning attempts, condemned the Kremlin in a CNN video that aired earlier Monday. Those attempted advances threaten Ukraine's entire southern coastline and its outlet to the sea.

Can Russia reboot Ukraine war in time for Putin to claim a victory? (CTV News)

Russian President Vladimir Putin has a new general overseeing his war in Ukraine, and his military commanders are signalling a new phase in the war: an ...

Russian forces will likely continue to struggle to establish coherent and efficient command and control arrangements for the foreseeable future." That doesn't mean the coming weeks will be easy for Ukrainian forces fighting in the east. Russian units that have fought in Ukraine have taken fearful damage." Before the invasion, Russia had arrayed approximately 120 battalion tactical groups around Ukraine. According to one European official, about a quarter of those forces are "effectively inoperable" after heavy casualties and the destruction of hardware. Military experts and western officials have also speculated that Putin's generals are feeling the pressure to deliver some sort of results ahead of May 9, when Russia marks Victory Day, the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945. "The situation is gradually heating up in Donbas, and we understand that April will be quite hot," Filatov said recently.
