This is the best summary I could come up with:
The Ukrainian president said the situation in Kharkiv remains under control as Russia pushes into Vovchansk.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksyy has visited Kharkiv amidst an ongoing Russian offensive.
At the bedside of wounded soldiers in a military hospital, Zelenskyy decorated doctors and fighters.
He posted on X saying, “Thanks to Ukraine’s Defence Forces and our efforts, we were able to instil more confidence in the Vochansk direction.”
Six people were injured on Thursday in one Russian daylight attack on Vovchansk using cluster munitions, local officials said, as emergency workers and volunteers rescued those impacted by shelling.
Russia launched an offensive in the Kharkiv area late last week, significantly adding to the pressure on Ukraine’s outnumbered and outgunned forces which are waiting for delayed deliveries of crucial weapons and ammunition from Western partners.
