The status is precarious, with updates indicating that invading units were establishing defenses and strengthening posts in certain areas.

Russian Military Strategic Shifts

The national leader also signed a law allowing military conscription throughout the year whereas previously it was possible only during limited periods in autumn and spring.

Italy requested the envoy's presence on Tuesday to object to what it said were crude, concerning and improper statements by Moscow's foreign ministry spokeswoman who connected the fatal incident of a building in the capital to Italy's military support for the eastern European nation.
