Ukraine: Counter-offensive in Sumy - Russian forces pushed back 2 km

Ukrainian armed forces announced today that they pushed back Russian forces by approximately 2 kilometers in a section of the Sumy front in northern Ukraine.

There has been no comment from Russia so far, which controls just over 200 square kilometers in the region, according to the DeepState mapping program of the battlefields in Ukraine.

"Ukrainian soldiers continue to fight to destroy the enemy and liberate our settlements," the general staff of the Ukrainian armed forces wrote on Facebook.

The Ukrainian staff added that fighting is raging near the villages of Oleksiivka and Yonakivka, which are located 5 and 7 kilometers respectively from the Russian border.
