JAKARTA - Ukrainian troops managed to launch a counterattack against Russian troops, retaking two strategic areas that had been bombarded by the Moscow army.
British military intelligence said on Friday Ukrainian forces had retaken the villages of Sloboda and Lukashivka south of Chernihiv, located along the main supply route between the city and Kyiv.
"Ukraine also continues to carry out successful but limited counter-offensives to the east and northeast of Kyiv," the UK Ministry of Defence said.
Chernihiv and Kyiv have been the target of sustained air and missile strikes despite Russia's claims of reducing activity in these areas, the ministry added.
Meanwhile, according to The National News, the British Ministry of Defense said Chernihiv and Kyiv were being targeted by continued air and missile attacks, despite Russia's claims of reducing activity in these areas.
It is said, the success of recapturing the strategic villages of Sloboda and Lukashivka, is considered to be able to help reduce the attack on Chernihiv.
In an earlier intelligence update on Friday, the Defense Ministry tweeted that the Russian army deployed up to 2,000 troops from Georgia in three tactical battle groups, aimed at Ukraine.
Separately, Britain's Chief of Defense Staff Admiral Sir Tony Radakin said Russia's attempts to seize all of Ukraine during the invasion appeared to have fallen apart as Putin's troops withdrew.
He called Britain "very cautious" about believing Russia's claims of withdrawing ground troops from Kyiv, but said there appeared to be signs the Kremlin was preparing to focus its offensive efforts in eastern and southern Ukraine.
