Telegram channel RIA Melitopol has named who it believes is the policeman hit in today's explosion in the city.
#Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) has released a video showing some of its claimed recent hits.
They say they have destroyed 14 tanks, 4 armoured BMP fighting vehicles, 1 warehouse dump and 2 dugouts with enemy fighters within 5 days on the eastern border.
#Sweden's parliament has approved the transfer of military aid to #Ukraine.
The Riksdag voted in favour of the government's proposal to give aid of €550m, including Archer self-propelled artillery systems and Leopard 2 tanks, to Kyiv.

Grainy night video from a distance, but still clearly identifiable as an incendiary explosive. However, it's not possible to verify where exactly, or when, it was filmed.
