Ukrainian Soldiers Fire Artillery /shells At Russian Positions In Eastern Ukraine

UNSPECIFIED, UKRAINE - FEBRUARY 18: A Ukrainian soldier who gave the name Ruslan loads the gun, as soldiers of the Ukraine Armys 95th Brigade fire 105mm artillery shells from a British-made L119 howitzer at Russian positions in the Lyman direction on February 18, 2024 in an undisclosed location, Ukraine. Ukrainian units across the 600-mile frontline are facing severe shortages of weapons, artillery shells and other ammunition - supplies of which are dependent on critical but shrinking American and European aid. As the two-year anniversary of Russias all-out invasion of Ukraine nears on February 24, Russian forces have stepped up attacks all along the front, causing Ukrainian units like this in the eastern Donbas region to dig deeper into defensive positions.
