As fighting rages in the east of Ukraine, a wounded soldier who was receiving treatment in town of Sloviansk on Tuesday remained hopeful.

"I think that in the near future… and I came here only yesterday… I think that in the near future everything will be fine," Ukrainian soldier, Alexander, told Reuters in Sloviansk where air raid sirens constantly echoed.

In the city of Kramatorsk, medical teams operated on another wounded soldier, with used medical equipment quickly filling up in a bucket in the operating room.

Russia, which launched what it calls a "special military operation" on Feb. 24, denies targeting civilians. Ukraine said on Monday (April 18) that the Russian forces, after regrouping, had launched a new offensive focused on eastern Ukraine.

Russia's nearly eight-week-long invasion has failed to capture any of Ukraine's largest cities, forcing Moscow to refocus in and around separatist regions in the east.

The biggest attack on a European state since 1945 has led to nearly five million people fleeing abroad and reduced cities to rubble.

Польша рано или поздно придет за "своей частью" Украины, у меня нет никаких сомнений. Это Львовская, Тернопольская, Ивано-Франковская, Ровненская области.
