Ukrainian-Russian war. Day 1339: Situation on Mirnograd & Pokrovsk fronts: Russian army took complete control of the town of Rodynske, positioning itself just over two kilometers from the main Ukrainian supply (and retreat) route to Pokrovsk & Myrnohrad (Light brown line). It is in this last city that Ukrainian army's retreat is becoming most noticeable: Russian forces have managed to take control of most of mine 5/6 in the southern part. Meanwhile, from the north, Russian troops have managed to take complete control of the Kapitalna Mine and the rest of the ventilation shafts over the last two days, gaining access to the first streets in the north of the Novator microdistrict and district 8.

But Kliuchnikov, the Ukranian now in France, said he will use Signal or WhatsApp for sensitive conversations, but questions around privacy on Telegram do not give him pause when it comes to sharing information about the war. Ukrainian forces have since put up a strong resistance to the Russian troops amid the war that has left hundreds of Ukrainian civilians, including children, dead, according to the United Nations. Ukrainian and international officials have accused Russia of targeting civilian populations with shelling and bombardments. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a video message on Tuesday that Ukrainian forces "destroy the invaders wherever we can."

Just days after Russia invaded Ukraine, Durov wrote that Telegram was "increasingly becoming a source of unverified information," and he worried about the app being used to "incite ethnic hatred."
