Wanted counteroffensive to begin much earlier, says Ukraine's Zelenskyy as Russia ramps up attacks

India Today  

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he wanted his country’s counteroffensive against Russia to begin “much earlier”, even as both sides claim incremental advances in the conflict that has lasted for over 16 months now. Here are the latest developments in the Russia-Ukraine conflict: Ukraine’s counteroffensive has been “slowed down” by entrenched Russian defenses, Volodymyr Zelenskyy told CNN, and renewed his call on the West to provide more weapons to boost the Ukrainian forces’ push to recapture lost territory. Read 'Fierce fighting on everywhere': Ukraine says Russian troops advancing in 4 areas Zelenskyy said that in some areas of the country his military cannot “even think of starting” attacks, because it does not have “the relevant weapons.” “I’m grateful to the US as the leaders of our support,” he said, “but I told them as well as the European leaders that we would like to start our counteroffensive earlier, and we need all the weapons and materiel for that. This comes after Zelenskyy accused Russia of plotting to stage an attack on Europe's biggest nuclear power plant, claiming that Russian troops have placed “objects resembling explosives” on the roofs of buildings at the site.
