Ukraine regained more territory than Russia seized in April, the first time Moscow suffered a net territorial loss since Ukraine's incursion into Russia's Kursk region in August 2024, according to analysis from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW).
CNN detailed that Ukrainian officers are detecting a shift in Russian morale after months of relentless fighting. Kyrylo Bondarenko, an officer in the Ukrainian unmanned aerial systems unit Lazar's Group near Zaporizhzhia, told the network that Russian troops appear exhausted.
