Ukrainian Troops Push Forward as Russian Forces Regroup
Ukrainian officials said their armed forces are pressing forward against Russian military units around Kyiv, seeking to exploit Moscow’s efforts to regroup after weeks of heavy losses.
After taking the city of Irpin to the northwest of Kyiv this week, Ukrainian forces are now engaged in heavy fighting in the neighboring towns of Bucha and Hostomel, officials said.
In the Chernihiv region to the north of the capital, Ukrainian forces retook a village and were pushing for further gains, officials said, while warning that it was too early to say Russian forces were withdrawing.
“I’m not sure one can call it a withdrawal of troops. At the very least it’s a regrouping, but perhaps they are really withdrawing,” said Vyacheslav Chaus, governor of Chernihiv region. “But that does not give us any chance to relax.”
