Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered a partial mobilisation after Moscow’s troops suffered losses in Ukraine. In a televised address on Wednesday, Putin warned Western nations supporting Ukraine that Moscow would defend itself with the might of all its vast arsenal if faced with a nuclear threat from the West. He also announced his support for planned referendums in Ukrainian territories under Russian control. Meanwhile, Ukrainian leaders are far from scared by the prospect of fighting a much larger army.

Ukraine has said civilian evacuations were halted in two cities in the country’s southeast because of continuing attacks, an account dismissed by Russia which had announced a temporary ceasefire to allow more than 200,000 people to escape the fighting. Russia earlier on Saturday said its forces stopped firing near Mariupol and Volnovakha to allow safe passage to civilians, but Ukraine officials accused Russian troops of breaking the partial truce.
