Ukraine's Counter-Offensive Retakes Villages in Donetsk Region Amid Russia-Ukraine War

Ukraine has recaptured a village in the southern Zapororizhzhia region, its first gain on that front since it launched its counter-offensive earlier this month. Russia acknowledged the loss, but said it had repelled a series of Ukrainian attacks across three sections of the front line. Heavy fighting continues in the area, with both sides suffering heavy casualties. The European Union is speeding up arms deliveries to Ukraine, and Britain is expanding its programme to help Ukraine’s cyber defences. Ukraine also claimed to have destroyed a “significant” ammunition depot near the Russian-occupied port city of Henichesk.
