Before Russia launched its new offensive in eastern and southern Ukraine last week, a U.S. official warned that Ukrainian forces were firing several thousand artillery shells a day and could be in danger of burning through ammunition faster than they could replenish it.
Kravchuk also mentioned Saturday's Russian missile attack on the southern port city of Odessa, which killed at least eight people, including a 3-month-old baby.
