While there are reports of new attacks on both Ukraine and Russia tonight, military experts are closely watching what is happening at the front south of the Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhya. Ukraine has pushed into the town of Verbove, and also appears to have destroyed an important supply route for the Russian soldiers in the area. Targeted offensive – It is an offensive with small movements, but it is targeted. And with their attacks, they force the Russians to expose themselves in a way that allows Ukraine to attack with artillery and drones, says Lieutenant Colonel Palle Ydstebø to news.

He believes this is because the Ukrainians have received better Western weapons which are both more precise and reliable. – Where they (ed.anm.Ukrainians) manage to bring artillery, it is actually the case that they manage to have sufficient artillery superiority to wage the war on their own terms. Attack on Odesa A woman was injured in a Russian rocket and drone attack on the port city of Odesa last night. At the same time, infrastructure in the harbor was damaged, says Governor Oleg Kiper. A high-rise building in the city caught fire after the attack, but was quickly extinguished. No people lived in the building. The extent of the damage after the attack is not yet completely clear. The Ukrainian air force says it has shot down 19 Don and 11 Russian rockets on Monday night. Ukrainian attack on Russia There have also been reports of a Ukrainian drone attack on the Russian Kursk region. Several residential buildings and an administrative building were damaged, according to local authorities. The extent of the Ukrainian attack was also not clear on Monday morning. Kursk borders Ukraine to the east. Drone war The Russian Ministry of Defense says it has neutralized four drones over the northwestern part of the Black Sea and Crimea on Monday. There have been no reports of damage. Two drones launched from Ukraine are said to have been shot down over Belgorod. Ukraine rarely claims responsibility for attacks inside Russia or in Russian-controlled areas of Ukraine, but has stated that the destruction of Russian military installations aids the Ukrainian counter-offensive.
