Fierce fighting is taking place in Ukraine, where Kiev forces are fighting back and the Russians are retreating by striking power plants
The recapture of "more than 20 locations" within 24 hours was announced by the Ukrainian army as part of the counter-offensive against the Russian armed forces.
Along the entire front line, "Ukrainian forces managed to drive the enemy from more than 20 locations" within 24 hours, the army said in its morning report.
Russia hits power plants
Yesterday, Sunday, Ukrainian troops counterattacked in the northeast, forcing the Russian troops to retreat.
Russia in its retreat hit Ukrainian infrastructure, causing widespread power outages, with the Kharkiv and Donetsk regions among those blacked out, officials said.
Kiev's counter-offensive to retake the Russian-occupied areas of Kharkiv forced Moscow to withdraw its troops to prevent it from encircling them, leaving behind significant numbers of weapons and ammunition in a hasty retreat as the war entered its 200th day.
In a speech, the president of Ukraine announced the liberation of the strategic city of Izium in the east.
