Russia-Ukraine war – latest news updates
Two things stand out with Ukraine’s counter offensive more than a week under way. Ukraine is pushing forward at several points, mostly along the southern front but also in the east, and that in some places, its army is making incremental but real gains, liberating villages near the frontline.
In the last week Ukraine has attacked on the western edge of the Zaporizhzhia sector, where the frontlines meet the Dnipro river at a point; again south of Orikhiv 18 miles east and, most significantly, either side of a Russian salient at the border between Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk oblasts.
