Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said his country has lost 31,000 soldiers since Russia¡¯s full-scale invasion started two years ago as he stressed that a decision from the U.S. Congress on $60 billion in aid was needed within a month.

Zelenskyy said Ukraine has a ¡°clear plan¡± for 2024, while making a blockbuster claim that parts of its 2023 battle strategy had been leaked to Russia.

With the war now in its third year, Russia has gained fresh momentum, exploiting Kyiv¡¯s deficit of ammunition and shortage of troops. U.S. support, a crucial lifeline, faces formidable obstacles in the Republican-led House of Representatives, even after a joint $95 billion package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan cleared the Senate.
