Russia attacks Odesa, Ukrainian counteroffensive advancing slowly
Issued on: Modified:
Russia struck the Ukrainian Black Sea city of Odesa again on Sunday, local officials said, keeping up a barrage of attacks that has damaged critical port infrastructure in southern Ukraine in the past week. FRANCE 24 correspondent Gulliver Cragg says it’s the “heaviest strike on Odesa” so far. Speaking more largely on the Ukrainian counteroffensive, he says soldiers in the Zaporizhzhia region were “at pains to say there were advances every day, but only a few dozen metres … because of Russian mine fields”.
