According to its own statements , the United States has   promised or already delivered weapons and equipment worth almost seven billion US dollars (6.73 billion euros) to Ukraine since the beginning of the war at the end of February. Ukraine has accused Russia of dropping phosphorus bombs on Snake Island in the Black Sea.

He also presented a video that is supposed to prove the bombing. The day before, the Russian military had withdrawn from the island. Moscow had presented this as a "gesture of goodwill". Kyiv considers the retreat from the island captured by the Russians on the second day of the war as a victory as a result of frequent attacks.

Other important events of the night:

At a meeting in Kiev, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre promised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyj further support of one billion euros spread over 2022 and 2023.

The US government sees the recapture of Snake Island as a success for the Ukrainian military. Russia's claim that the withdrawal was a goodwill gesture lacks credibility, a senior US Defense Department official said.

The German Federal Network Agency fears a total failure of gas supplies from Russia and is calling for greater efforts to save energy. The Nord Stream 1 pipeline will soon be undergoing regular maintenance – a conceivable reason for supply cutbacks.

The UN cultural organization Unesco has put the Ukrainian cooking culture of the beetroot soup borscht on its list of cultural heritage to be protected. The reason is a threat from the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine.
