A senior U.S. defense official tells CNN that Russian forces have launched “more than 1,080 missiles” since the beginning of their invasion. Ukraine’s military says six missiles were fired at Lviv, the western city near Poland’s border that has been relatively untouched. Retired Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling tells AC360 this is likely to become a battle of the “will of the two sides” and how much damage they can sustain until they give up.

Plus, the mayor of Melitopol was detained by armed men in the Russian-occupied city on March 11. Mayor Ivan Fedorov joins AC360 days after being rescued by the Ukrainian government to discuss his abduction and says if Ukraine doesn’t win this war, Russia will attack Europe and the rest of the world.
