STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOS - Ukrainian troops held off determined attacks on Wednesday by Russian forces trying to regain lost positions on the eastern front, military officials said, while analysts suggested Kyiv's forces were also making progress in the southern theatre.
Ilia Yevlash, a spokesperson for Ukraine's eastern group of forces, told national television:"We continue to repel intense enemy attacks near Klishchiivka and Andriivka. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy referred briefly in a post on the Telegram messaging app to"our advance in the Donetsk sector" in the east, but provided no details.
Ukrainian officials have spoken of gains in the drive southward, with General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi, commander of forces in the south, telling CNN last week of a"breakthrough", while noting that progress was slower than had been hoped.
