The Armed Forces have achieved some success against the second line of Russian defense. Ukraine in recent days have made “noticeable progress” during the offensive against the Russian occupation forces in southern Ukraine. In particular, in the Zaporozhye direction.
This was stated by the coordinator of strategic communications of the US National Security Council, John Kirby, Reuters reports.
“We have noted noticeable progress over the past 72 hours or so of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the southern offensive line, leaving the Zaporozhye region. They have achieved some success against the second line of Russian defense,” Kirby said.
A representative of the US presidential administration also stressed that it is not useful to criticize partners for the speed of the offensive “. However, says Kirby, it is up to Ukraine how to capitalize on their success.
“This is not to say that they [Ukrainians] do not realize that there are tough battles ahead of them as they try to push further south, or that Russia may launch countermeasures,” a spokesman for the White House National Security Council said.
Recall that earlier the Pentagon said that Ukraine's armed forces continue to slowly move forward during the counteroffensive.
