Wrap Up
In summary, incremental Ukrainian gains and positional battles reported in Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk, but no major breakthroughs yet. The Russian defense is tactically sound so far, but Ukraine is inflicting heavy attrition, with claims of a 5.3 to 1 loss ratio in their favor. Slow going, but this is the reality of a difficult counter-offensive against prepared defenses.
