Ukraine Launches Counteroffensive Against Russia

Ukraine's counter-offensive against invading Russian forces has successfully taken back seven villages, including ones near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant that Russia currently controls.
The fighting continues, with air raid sirens heard in Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, and a five-story residential building hit causing serious injuries.
The direction of the counter-offensive suggests that the main target may be to cut the "land bridge" of Russian-held territory connecting Russia to the Crimean Peninsula, which is the most significant strategic gain Russia has made in the 15-month-old war.
