After making additional significant breakthroughs on Saturday, the Ukrainian army is now within shouting distance of the Russian border.

According to President Volodymyr Zelensky, a lightning strike by Ukrainian forces has broken through Russian defenses and penetrated far into the seized territory, liberating more than 30 communities in the Kharkiv region.

An attack that threatens a vital supply hub utilized by occupying Russian soldiers in the east caught the Russian lines off guard at a weak spot on their front.

Putin Suffers Major Blow 

The leader of the Russian-backed government in the Kharkiv area, Vitaly Ganchev, essentially acknowledged that significant portions of its frontline had collapsed southeast of Kharkiv, the second-largest city in Ukraine.

William Burns, director of the CIA, referred to Vladimir Putin's invasion as already a disasgivenw of the significant gains made by Ukrainian forces. He claimed that the Russian tyrant continued to dangerously misunderstand the will of the West to back Kyiv and conduct an economic war on Russia. He also claimed that the dictator originally erred in underestimating Ukrainian will and ability to fight his invasion.

When the Ukrainian high command launched its counteroffensive, it ordered a media blackout and forbade journalists from going to the front lines, leaving only pro-Russian sources to acknowledge defeat. On state television, Ganchev stated that "the enemy is being delayed as much as possible, but some settlements have already come under the control of Ukrainian armed formations."

As Moscow's troops urgently withdraw to hold onto the ground they took, Ukrainian forces now control the strategically important city of Izium and are only 50 kilometers from the Russian border. Zelensky had earlier stated that his administration was attempting to evacuate residents from cities like Izium, which is one of the major targets of the Ukrainian offensive and serves as both Russia's primary bastion and logistical hub in the region, as per Daily Mail.
