Ukraine’s counter-offensive: Latest
Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Malyar reported that the Ukrainian Defense Forces are continuing their offensive on the Bakhmut, Melitopol, and Berdyansk sections of the front and are making progress. Ukrainian forces have advanced 1.3 kilometers toward Berdyansk.
Over the past week, as part of the Ukrainian military’s counter-offensive, the Russian invasion army's losses exceeded Ukrainian losses by eight times, Malyar added.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that progress since the start of the Ukrainian counter-offensive campaign is "slower than we would like," but that Ukraine will move forward "as it sees fit."
On June 15, Malyar reported that the offensive continued on several fronts. The Ukrainian army was slowly but surely advancing and inflicting significant losses on the invaders.
Earlier, the head of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley, predicted that the Ukrainian counter-offensive would see difficult and fierce battles.
