Meanwhile, the Russian attack helicopters have destroyed a convoy of Ukraine’s armoured vehicles and anti-aircraft warfare, the news agency Interfax reported. 

“Attack helicopters KA-52 … destroyed weapons and military equipment of the armed forces of Ukraine,” the agency cited the ministry as saying in a statement. Ukrainian military officials were not immediately available for comment. Reuters was not immediately able to verify the report.

Russian President Vladimir Putin appointed a new Army General Alexander Dvornikov, commander of Russia’s Southern Military District, to lead the war in Ukraine as Moscow’s military failed to capture Kyiv, ANI reported.

It was not clear how many people remained trapped in the city, which had a prewar population of 430,000.
