Fighting continued in several regions while officials deployed by the Russian government in the occupied territories celebrated a Russian national holiday. According to the authorities, four people were injured in an explosion in the occupied city of Melitopol in the Zaporizhia region.
The occupation authorities assumed that an explosive device had detonated in a rubbish bin next to their local administration, the Russian news agency Tass reported. Only civilians were injured. The information could not be independently verified.
The Ukrainian Ambassador Andriy Melnyk is demanding concrete commitments for Chancellor Olaf Scholz 's apparently planned trip to Kiev. "We hope that during his visit to Kiev the chancellor will finally keep the German promises regarding arms deliveries and Ukraine's EU accession," he told Der Spiegel. To this day, the delivery of heavy weapons such as the Panzerhaubitze 2000 and the Gepard anti-aircraft tank is still awaited, said Melnyk. Announcements alone are no help against the invaders in war. It is therefore hoped that the chancellor will give him concrete dates as to when the weapons will arrive, "especially since the promises were made months ago." According to a media report, Scholz wantstravel to Kyiv later this month.
