The ATO was a military counter-offensive launched by Ukraine against pro-Russian forces in April 2014. The footage of the multiple strikes comes as UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres is set to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow later today. The meeting will take place amid the warning by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov of the "real" threat of World War Three breaking out. Lavrov also said there was a "considerable" risk of the conflict escalating to nuclear weapons, but Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba responded that his Russian counterpart was just trying to "scare the world off supporting Ukraine". Russia earlier claimed responsibility for the destruction of six substations powering Ukrainian railways, which the Kremlin said were used to transport foreign weapons.
