Ukraine has started its counteroffensive, according to BBC News.
On Saturday, UK defence officials reported heavy fighting near the Russian-occupied southern region of Kherson.
Already, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky says his forces are advancing "step by step".
Earlier this month, the country's Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk urged Kherson residents to evacuate the city as soon as possible to avoid becoming trapped in the city when they begin to assault Russian positions in southern Ukraine.
Serhiy Khlan, an advisor to Kherson's "government", told Ukrainian television the region would "definitely be liberated by September", AFP reported.
Is this another wild Ukrainian claim? We shall soon know!
