Russian shelling killed at least 10 Ukrainian civilians on Friday the second day of bombardments by Putin's forces after Western nations pledged to send military aid including modern tanks.

Both sides in the war are widely expected to launch spring offensives, but Washington has advised Kyiv against doing so until the latest weapons are in place and training has been provided a process expected to take several months.
