Ukraine's Counteroffensive Gains Ground: Key Village Retaken from Russian Troops

Ukrainian officials claim to have retaken the village of Urozhaine from Russian forces in the eastern Donetsk region as part of their ongoing counteroffensive. However, these claims could not be independently verified. Meanwhile, Russian drones have targeted grain storage facilities and ports along the Danube River, which Ukraine has been relying on as an alternative transport route to Europe. A container ship stranded in the Black Sea since Russia's invasion over 17 months ago has set sail along a temporary corridor established by Ukraine for merchant shipping. The Russian military has also shot down three drones over the Kaluga region and blamed the attack on Ukraine.
