Ukraine war: Kyiv not attacking Russian territory - Zelensky

Ukraine has no plans to hit targets in Russia, President Volodymyr Zelensky has said in Germany, where Kyiv secured a big new defence aid package.

"We are not attacking Russian territory," he said after talks in Berlin with Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

"We are preparing a counterattack to de-occupy the illegitimately conquered territories," Mr Zelensky added.

Mr Scholz vowed to back Ukraine "for as long as it is necessary", promising €2.7bn (£2.4bn) worth of weapons.

This includes advanced German Leopard tanks and more anti-aircraft systems to defend Ukraine from almost daily deadly Russian missile and drone attacks. read more
