Sweet and Spicy: what's the buzz on honey infusions? | SaltWireMOSCOW - President Vladimir Putin said Russian forces have bolstered their positions across the entire front line in Ukraine after what he said was the failure of Ukraine's counteroffensive this year.
Russia currently controls about 17.5% of Ukrainian territory and a four-month-old Ukrainian counteroffensive this year by Ukrainian forces has made almost no net territorial gains, according to Western analyses of the territory held by Russia. "As for the counteroffensive, which is allegedly stalling, it has failed completely," Putin said in video remarks posted to social media by a Kremlin journalist Pavel Zarubin.
Both Russia and the United States have described the upsurge of fighting around Avdiivka as a new Russian offensive.
