‘Everything is ahead of us’: Ukraine breaks Russian stronghold’s first line of defence
- The United States believes Ukraine is making progress in its counteroffensive against Russian forces and still has "significant" reserves it has yet to commit. U.S. General Mark Milley stated that Ukrainians are advancing steadily and deliberately, despite the challenges they face, and their combat power is being preserved for the tough fight ahead.
- The United States will continue to provide Ukraine with critical equipment and support for as long as necessary. U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin reiterated the commitment to support Ukraine, including supplying air defense and ammunition, to meet their needs in the ongoing conflict.
- Russia has continued to attack Ukraine, causing civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure. Indiscriminate shelling by Russian troops killed at least four civilians, and Russia launched fresh drone strikes that damaged infrastructure in Odesa. Ukrainian forces are facing dense mines and intense enemy fire, but they continue to register successes in parts of the south during their counteroffensive.
