Ukraine has marked 35 years of independence as heavy fighting continues across the country. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has ruled out territorial concessions, including giving up the Donbas, while urging allies to help close a 27-billion-euro defence funding gap. His comments came as British Prime Minister Andy Burnham pledged support for Ukraine’s domestic long-range missile production, prompting a warning from Moscow. Hasan Abdullah reports from Dnipro.
