The Ukrainian army is carrying out counteroffensives that have made it possible, particularly in the south, to recover ground from Russian troops, who are facing communication difficulties, the Pentagon said today.
The Ukrainian military “is now, in certain situations, on the offensive,” John Kirby, a spokesman for the Pentagon, told a television station, adding that “they are chasing the Russians and driving them out of areas where they have been before.”

“We know that they carried out counterattacks (…) especially in recent days, in Mykolaiv”, an important city in southern Ukraine, he said. “We have seen (these territorial gains) increase in recent days. (…) It is a real proof of your ability to fight according to your plans, adapting and, again, trying to repel Russian forces”, said Kirby.
Regarding Russian troops, the Pentagon spokesman said that “their commanders do not always speak, they do not always coordinate air and ground forces”. “We saw tensions between Russian air and ground forces. About how they supported each other with difficulty,” Kirby explained, adding that the same flaws can be seen in the Navy, where he said there were “problems with command and control” of the military.
Kirby said the Russians “have a hard time talking to each other” and that the forces “are running out of gas and food”, considering they “are in trouble”.
