Ukraine’s surprise counteroffensive in northeast Ukraine near Kharkiv recovered large amounts of territory this week, with President Zelensky estimating that Ukraine has recovered almost 3,100 square miles (8,000 square kilometers) of land, an area bigger than Delaware and Rhode Island combined, and 388 settlements. Operations also continued in southern Ukraine near Kherson. The UK Ministry of Defence wrote that Ukrainian successes in the northeast “have significant implications for Russia’s overall operational design,” noting that “[t]he already limited trust deployed troops have in Russia’s senior military leadership is likely to deteriorate further.” Morale among Russian troops was reportedly weak, as many fled the advancing Ukrainian troops, leaving behind military equipment. The Ukrainian general staff claimed that Russia has stopped sending new units into Ukraine; a US defense official confirmed that many retreating soldiers have returned to Russia. In response to the counteroffensive, Russian missile strikes have continued, including against industrial and civilian sites.
