Ukrainian forces have made a major breakthrough in their counteroffensive against Russian-occupied areas in the Zaporizhzhia region, with the settlement of Piatykhatky now under Ukrainian operational control. Despite "colossal losses" suffered by the Ukrainian forces, the offensive yielded a result, with U.K. military officials reporting that Russian losses are at their highest level since the peak of the battle for Bakhmut in March. Ukrainian forces have made small advances, but the counteroffensive is ongoing and it remains to be seen if they can continue to make gains.
