This may be the best example of burden sharing that I\u2019ve seen in the 32 years that I\u2019ve been doing this,\u201d Blinken said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe United States has been surging our own resources and security assistance to continue to help build up Ukraine\u2019s air defenses, its artillery, its armored vehicles,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are determined \u2014 and it\u2019s fully my intent and the President\u2019s intent \u2014 to spend every cent that we have available from the USD 61 billion that were authorized by Congress in the supplemental appropriation,\u201d Blinken said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Russian forces try to establish positions on islands near Kherson, assemble 300 boats<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Russian forces are conducting assault operations in the Kherson direction, trying to establish positions on the river islands, spokesperson for Ukraine\u2019s southern group of forces, Colonel Vladyslav Voloshyn told Suspilne, Ukraine\u2019s public broadcaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey aim to gain a foothold, keep it and draw as much of our troops and weapons there as possible. All these assaults end in nothing. They\u2019re all futile. The enemy only takes losses,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Voloshyn added, citing intelligence reports, that the Russians are training units to conduct assault river crossing operations in the training grounds in occupied parts of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey use boats of the so-called \u2018Dnepr River Flotilla\u2019 in the exercises, and one such boat division was redeployed to the Tendra and Kinburn Spits in early autumn. They are trained to execute wet gap crossings, and send airborne groups across the river. But these are [exercises] for small infantry groups to conduct assault river crossing operations,\u201d Voloshyn said.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added that the military command is aware of the 300 boats that Russia has collected for a possible assault in the area. Ukrainian troops are ready to address all scenarios, the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an interview with the Financial Times published Wednesday, head of the Kherson regional military administration Oleksandr Prokudin said \u201cRussia wants to launch another offensive here,\u201d adding that Russian forces had assembled \u201c300 boats to cross the river\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Russian warship fires signal ammunition at German helicopter in Baltic Sea<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A Russian warship fired signal munitions at a German military helicopter in the Baltic Sea, German media said on Wednesday.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>German Foreign Minister, Annalena Baerbock, briefly mentioned the incident on the sidelines of a meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Brussels, but did not provide any details or say when the incident occurred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The helicopter was undertaking a reconnaissance mission against a backdrop of rising incidents of sabotage targeting critical undersea infrastructure in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The use of signal ammunition is reportedly only common in emergency situations, the reports said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Baerbock also announced that Baltic Sea patrols would be increased to monitor pipelines and data cables after several acts of suspected sabotage by Russia and its allies in recent months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. is determined to use all of the money remaining from the USD 61 billion Ukraine aid package before the end of Biden\u2019s term.
