Russia Withdraws More Forces From Northeast Ukraine as Kyiv Presses Advance – WSJ

Russia withdrew more forces from the Kharkiv region on Monday, retreating from a swath of northeastern Ukraine as Kyiv s forces continued their push into Russian-occupied territory and the government pledged that all areas seized by Moscow would be retaken.

The Russian occupiers are running so fast under pressure from Ukrainian soldiers that they re leaving whole ammunition arsenals behind, Ukraine s SBU intelligence service said. We know what to do with them and will be sure to use them according to purpose against the enemy.

Since the start of its offensive earlier this month, Ukraine has said it has retaken about 9,000 square kilometers, or about 3,500 square miles, of territory from Moscow s forces in the region of Kharkiv, handing Russia the biggest setback since it invaded in February. That is more than one-tenth of all areas Russia gained and kept since the invasion.
