Ukraine war briefing: Worse than Bakhmut but now we have shells, say Kharkiv defenders
Briefly

Ukrainian soldiers operating a howitzer in the Kharkiv region express the intensity of the situation compared to Bakhmut, highlighting the continuous fighting against incoming infantry and the recent availability of shells to counterattack.
The Ukrainian military claims to have destroyed a Russian warship armed with cruise missiles in Sevastopol, but Reuters could not independently verify this information. Russian drones have targeted energy sites in Sumy, causing power outages, while officials warn of a potential Russian advance into the region.
President Zelenskiy acknowledges Ukrainian troops' progress against Russian forces but highlights the enduring challenges in frontline cities like Pokrovsk, Kramatorsk, and Kurakhove. The Kharkiv region has witnessed a significant displacement of over 14,000 individuals, indicating the severity of the conflict's impact on civilians.
