19/20 takes stock of the information from the last 24 hours in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
Ukraine is experiencing its 634th day of conflict, Monday November 20. A young Ukrainian authorized to return to his country, the renewed support of the Americans for Ukraine, or the advance of the defense army on the bank of the Dnieper… Here is what we should remember from this day.
Image of the day: an 18-year-old Ukrainian returning home
Bogdan Yermoshin, just 18 years old, was photographed with a Ukrainian flag in his hand, as he just returned to his country after crossing the Belarusian border. This young orphan lived in Mariupol when, in 2022, the Russians took the city. He was sent to Russia, to a host family. He feared being conscripted by the Russian army on his 18th birthday. Moscow finally agreed to let him go.
Quote of the day: “The USA will continue to stand with Ukraine”
The US Defense Secretary made a surprise visit to kyiv. Barely off the train, Lloyd Austin wanted to be very clear: “The United States will continue to stand with Ukraine in its fight for freedom against Russian aggression.“
Today’s figure: 8 kilometers
Ukrainian troops have advanced 8 kilometers on the south bank of the Dnieper, territory previously controlled by the Russians. After successfully crossing the river, the Ukrainians attempted to cut off the Russian army’s supply routes.
