Daily Wrap Up June 15, 2022
Under the cut: Thousands of civilians, including women, children and elderly people, are trapped in the embattled Ukrainian city of Sievierodonetsk with a diminishing supply of food, clean water, sanitation and electricity; Nato’s secretary general, Jens Stoltenberg, said allies would continue to supply Ukraine with heavy weapons and long-range systems; US President Biden announced $1 billion package of weapons for Ukraine that includes anti-ship rocket systems, artillery rockets, howitzers and ammunition; Canada will provide 10 replacement barrels for M777 howitzer artillery guns to Ukraine in new military aid; Turkey is ready to host a four-way meeting with the United Nations, Russia and Ukraine to organise the export of grain through the Black Sea.
“Thousands of civilians, including women, children and elderly people, are trapped in the embattled Ukrainian city of Sievierodonetsk with a diminishing supply of food, clean water, sanitation and electricity.
An urgent situation is developing in the bunkers beneath the Azot chemical plant in the city, a spokesperson for the UN’s humanitarian affairs office, Saviano Abreu, told the BBC.
Abreu said, “The lack of water and sanitation is a big worry. It’s a huge concern for us because people cannot survive for long without water.”
Food and health services are also at risk of running out, he said, adding, “Both parts of the conflict have an obligation under international humanitarian law to protect civilians, so it is not an option - they have to assure the people who want to leave the city that they can do it safely.”
Separately, the head of Sievierodonetsk’s military administration, Roman Vlasenko, told CNN that the more than 500 civilians sheltering underneath the Azot plant have not been supplied in two weeks.
Vlasenko said, “There are food stocks, but they have not been resupplied for two weeks. So stocks won’t last long. If there is a humanitarian corridor, I believe people are ready to leave Azot.””-via The Guardian

Nato’s secretary general, Jens Stoltenberg, said allies would continue to supply Ukraine with heavy weapons and long-range systems, with an agreement on a new package of assistance to Kyiv expected at the summit in Madrid later this month.
Stoltenberg was speaking to reporters before a meeting in Brussels of defence ministers from Nato and other countries to discuss and coordinate help for Ukraine.
Stoltenberg said, “Sometimes these efforts take time. That’s exactly why it is important to have a meeting like we have today … to meet with the Ukrainian representatives to identify the challenges and the issues they would like to raise with us.”
The agreement will help Ukraine move from old Soviet-era weaponry to “more modern Nato standard” gear, he said.-via The Guardian

“Russia attacking Luhansk in nine directions, Ukraine military says
Russia has concentrated its main strike forces in the north of Luhansk region and were trying to attack simultaneously in nine directions, the head of Ukraine’s military has said.
“The fierce struggle for Luhansk region continues,” Valeriy Zaluzhny, commander-in-chief of the armed forces, said.
The Russians were using aircraft, rocket-propelled grenades, and artillery, he added.
Serhiy Haidai, governor of the Luhansk region, said Ukraine’s army was defending the key city of Sievierodonetsk and trying to stop Russian forces from taking its twin city Lysychansk on the opposite bank of the Siverskyi Donets river.“-via the Guardian

“President Joe Biden on Wednesday announced a fresh U.S. infusion of $1 billion in weapons for Ukraine that includes anti-ship rocket systems, artillery rockets, howitzers and ammunition.
In a phone call with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, Biden said he told the embattled leader about the new weaponry.
"The United States is providing another $1 billion in security assistance for Ukraine, including additional artillery and coastal defense weapons, as well as ammunition for the artillery and advanced rocket systems," Biden said in a statement after the 41-minute call.
The president also announced an additional $225 million in humanitarian assistance to help people in Ukraine, including by supplying safe drinking water, critical medical supplies and healthcare, food, shelter, and cash for families to purchase essential items.
The latest weapons packages for Ukraine include 18 howitzers, 36,000 rounds of ammunition for them, two Harpoon coastal defense systems, artillery rockets, secure radios, thousands of night vision devices and funding for training, the Pentagon said.”-via Reuters

Turkey is ready to host a four-way meeting with the United Nations, Russia and Ukraine to organise the export of grain through the Black Sea, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said on Wednesday.
Agence France-Presse reports:
Millions of tons of wheat are currently stuck in Ukrainian ports, either blockaded or occupied by Russian forces, and vessels face the danger of mines. According to the Turkish foreign minister, the UN has submitted a plan to facilitate exports.
Under the plan, safe corridors could be established without de-mining in the Black Sea for grain exports from Ukraine, he said.
