According to a Ukrainian military source, Russian forces have initiated a surprise attack on northern Ukraine, making small advances in what is considered the most serious cross-border ground offensive in nearly two years.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has confirmed that the attack targeted the border town of Vovchansk near Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, as part of a new wave of counteroffensive actions by Russia. Zelensky described the ongoing battle in the area as fierce.
