UKRAINE
Following days of comments from Russian military and gov't officials regarding alleged Ukrainian attacks on Russian positions in occupied regions of Ukraine, NBC News is reporting that according to its sources "one senior officer and one soldier near the front lines", the main Ukrainian counteroffensive is now underway.

- NBC: "After months of buildup to a campaign that could prove crucial in Kyiv’s bid to reclaim occupied territory, a wave of attacks on Thursday focused on the war's southeastern front lines and appeared to represent a significant new push. This new phase of the war, which many see as crucial to persuading Western allies to renew their support, comes as Ukraine grapples with the fallout from the destruction of a critical dam in the region. Ukraine’s government has consistently said there would be no public announcement of the start of the offensive."
- So far, the main spearpoint of the offensive seems to be in the Zaporizhzhia oblast currently occupied by Russia. Following the breach of the Kakhovka dam in the south of the country it remains to be seen what the nature of the Ukrainian offensive in the region will look like given the extensive flooding to Kherson, both in Ukrainian and Russian-held areas.
