In German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's SPD party, voices began to be heard for Western troops to take part in the defense against Russian airstrikes in Ukraine.
"In the current military situation, I consider it necessary and responsible to deploy German anti-aircraft missile forces on NATO territory on the border with Ukraine in order to protect the airspace over Western Ukraine - for example, with the help of Patriot systems," SPD defense expert Joe Weingarten said.

"In the northern part of #Vovchansk , where active hostilities are taking place, the Russian military is taking civilians captive," #Ihor_Klymenko informs.
Evacuation continued in that area until today, and the police took people out despite threats and shelling.
