The country’s armed forces recaptured about 37 square kilometers in the east and south of the country last week as part of their counter-offensive, according to Ukrainian leaders. There is currently heavy fighting, especially on the Eastern Front.
Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Malijar said on Sunday the situation was “complicated”. Because in eastern Ukraine the enemy put up a lot of resistance and even advanced in different positions. In the east they advanced Ukrainian troops in the direction of Bakhmut. But mines are also a problem, says Malijar.
Thanks to a better tactical position and a more favorable orientation of the front, the Ukrainian Army recaptured nine square miles in the east. In the south it is an area of 28.4 square kilometers. Thus have the Ukraine recaptured a total of 158 square kilometers on this front.
13 out of 17 drones disposed of
There were also intensive drone and rocket attacks. The Ukrainian Air Force announced on Monday that its air defenses shot down 13 of 17 drones launched by Russia. “The rest have not reached their goal.” Kiev and Kherson were especially in the crosshairs. Several were injured.
