“The liberation of localities in the hands of Russian invaders continues in the regions of Kharkiv Y Donetsk“, in the east, said the Ukrainian army. On the entire front line, “the Ukrainian forces managed to expel the enemy from more than 20 locations” in 24 hourshe added.
On Sunday, the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyhad already announced that the city of Izium (this) had been “liberated” as part of the counteroffensive.
The loss of this strategic city could seriously undermine Russia’s military ambitions in eastern Ukraine, according to military experts.
The breakthrough revives Ukraine’s hopes of a inflection point in the conflict, after a long period in which the front seemed stalemated.
Pro-Russian occupation authorities in the Kharkiv region said on Monday that they had moved into the Russian region of Belgorodnear the border, officially to help with the influx of refugeesaccording to Russian agencies.
However on Monday, after acknowledging that it had lost ground, the Kremlin resumed an offensive tone and announced the shelling of the Ukrainian recaptured areas in the Kharkov regionin the Kupiansk and Izium sectors.
He also assured that the Russian offensive launched in February will continue “until the objectives are achieved.” Currently “there are no prospects for negotiations“between Russia and Ukraine, the Kremlin spokesman told the press, Dmitry Peskov.
Ukraine claims to have recovered around 3,000 km2 of its territory, mainly in the Kharkov region, since the beginning of September. And this Monday he claimed the reconquest of 500 km2 in two weeks of counteroffensive in the region of Kherson (south).
