Ukraine's armed forces are conducting successful counterattacks, so Russian forces have not made any significant advances in the last 24 hours. In two months of war, Russia has still failed to gain control of airspace in any of the regions.
This is reported by a recent British intelligence report.
It is reported that despite increased activity, Russian forces have made little progress in the past 24 hours as Ukrainian counterattacks continue to hamper their efforts.
"Russian air and sea forces have not gained control in any of the areas due to the effectiveness of Ukrainian air and sea defenses, reducing their ability to make notable progress," the report said.

In addition, despite the Russian authorities' claim that Mariupol has been taken, fierce fighting continues in the city, which further slows down the Russian offensive in Donbas.
