🇨🇦🇺🇦Canada open to non-combat military training mission in Ukraine: Defence Minister

Defence Minster Bill Blair says Canada is open to sending Canadian troops on a non-combat mission to train Ukrainian troops within Ukraine.

The move would only occur away from the war’s front lines and in a clearly defined non-combat role, Mr. Blair said in an interview. He stressed the delicate nature of such a mission.

It has to be done in a fairly careful and limited way, the possibility of delivering training.

he said.

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, when asked by reporters Feb. 27 about Canada sending troops to Ukraine, did not mention the possibility of training taking place directly in Ukraine.

I have to emphasize the fact that our soldiers are there in Poland, and they’re directly working with Ukrainian soldiers.

Freeland said.

🇪🇹 Fighting returns to capital of Ethiopia's Amhara region

Ethiopian government forces battled militiamen on Friday in the capital of the Amhara region, Bahir Dar, the regional administration and residents said.

Ethiopia's military has been fighting insurgents from the Fano militia since July in a conflict that left more than 200 people dead last year, according to United Nations reports.

The Amhara government said in a statement on Friday that the federal army and regional security forces were conducting "a joint operation and house-to-house surveillance around Bahir Dar to sweep out the extremist force that had infiltrated into the city".

"These extremist groups could not resist the combined strength of the security forces, leaving behind their dead and wounded and abandoning their weapons," it said.

A resident of the town of Merawi, 36 km from Bahir Dar, said there had been fighting there too on Friday but it had also died down.

❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Battle for Krasnogorovka: fight in the private sector
on the situation before 6:00 p.m. on March 2, 2024

In the direction of Donetsk, intense fighting continues on the southern outskirts of Krasnogorovka, which the Russian Armed Forces managed to seize a few days ago in the Shevchenko Street area. Information about the battles for the ruins of the automobile repair plant is not yet confirmed: it is likely that the Russian units did not reach there or were expelled.

▪️AFU brought reserves to Krasnogorovka, including units of the 3rd Airborne Brigade. The clashes take place in the private sector: the assault groups are supported by artillery, which acts against Ukrainian infantry and equipment and carries out counter-battery combat.

▪️Archive images of the attack of an armored group with a landing group at the intersection of 8 de Marzo and Geologicheskaya streets appeared on the Internet. The videos make it possible to determine not only the direction of the advance of the Russian Armed Forces, but also the absence of forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the attack zone and the warehouse to the north.

▪️In Georgievka, Russian troops also made some progress: according to some reports, they were able to occupy about ten houses along Kirov and Lenin streets. The Ukrainian formations counterattack and try to regain lost positions.

One of the main threats in the area is FPV drones, which AFU actively uses from commanding heights. The offensive is also complicated by minefields along routes of possible material movement.
