Ukraine's Counteroffensive Gains Ground Against Russian Forces.

Ukraine's Defense Forces engaged three Russian artillery units in firing positions, a command and control post, and an ammunition depot within a day. The Russian Federation continues to kill civilians in Ukraine, ignoring the laws and customs of war, employing terror tactics. Russian troops continue to focus their main efforts on the Lyman, Bakhmut, and Marinka axes, where over 20 combat clashes took place throughout the day. Further missile and air strikes targeting the entire territory of Ukraine remain highly likely.
