Assessing the Effectiveness of Ukraine's Counteroffensive Against Russia

Russian President Vladimir Putin claims that Ukraine's counter-offensive has been unsuccessful, with its army suffering major losses. Ukrainian President Zelensky has denied the counter-offensive is failing and claimed advances in some regions. NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg said that progress was being made in repelling Russian troops. Putin's comments were dismissed by a US official, who anonymously told the AP news agency they were "not accurate". On the same day, the US announced it would send a new military aid package to Ukraine worth $325 million.
