Ukrainian troops have achieved some success by counter-attacking in the south-western part of the Kherson region.

The UK Ministry of Defense said this in its latest intelligence update published on Twitter, Ukrinform reports.

"Ukrainian forces have recently achieved some success by counter-attacking in the south-western Kherson region, including regaining a foothold on the eastern bank of the Inhulets River," the ministry said.

It added that with the frontage of the occupied zone stretching for over 500km, both Russia and Ukraine face similar challenges in maintaining a defensive line while freeing up capable combat units for offensive operations.

According to the report, the Russian army continues to attempt assaults against the Sievierodonetsk pocket from three directions although Ukrainian defenses are holding.
