Germany urges partners to help Ukraine amid 'unabated' Russian attacks

The situation in Ukraine is very tense due to Russia's ongoing attacks, and Kyiv urgently needs help with its defence from partners, a German government spokesperson said on Wednesday.

"Russia's unabated attacks are putting Ukraine under immense pressure, and all the more reason for Ukraine's supporters to assist the country in its defence," said the government spokesperson at a regular government news conference in Berlin.
