“This will become an artillery conflict, they need support with more artillery, that is what we will be giving them… in addition to many other forms of support,” Johnson told lawmakers.

“The urgency is even greater now because Putin has regrouped his forces and launched a new offensive in the Donbas. We knew this danger would come,” Mr Johnson added.
Earlier today, Russian troops appeared to seize control of the eastern city of Kreminna, the first to fall in Russia’s efforts to take control of the Donbas region.
Russia’s defence minister said that Moscow was seeking to “liberate” eastern Ukraine as it launched its new offensive.
