The Institute for Study of War (ISW) says a “very dynamic situation” has developed in the Ukrainian counteroffensive around Orikhiv in western Zaporizhia oblast.
According to its latest report, Ukrainian forces have been engaged in an assault at the southern-most point of a salient that has penetrated Russian lines. Russian forces in the area near Novoprokopivka have reportedly been on the defensive, with the ISW saying separate Russian units on the western and eastern flanks of the salient have been engaged in counterattacks in an effort to relieve the mounting pressure.
