Lviv, Ukraine, Oct 5 (EFE).- Ukrainian forces continued to make \u201csignificant gains\u201d against Russian occupiers in the southern Kherson region, one of the territories Moscow says it has annexed, according to a United States think tank, which concurred with claims by Kyiv and its Western allies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The Institute for the Study of War said in its analysis <\/a>of the battleground in Ukraine on Tuesday said Ukraine\u2019s troops were also advancing in Kharkiv and Luhansk, in the northeast and east.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


In the south of the country, Ukrainian forces began to collapse the \u201csparsely\u2013man\u201d Russian front line and pushed troops back toward Kherson city, the capital of the homonymous region, the ISW said.<\/p>\n\n\n

Ukraine\u2019s president Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in his nightly address late Tuesday that the army was leading a \u201cfairly rapid and powerful advance\u201d in the south and that dozens of settlements had been liberated in Kherson, Kharkiv, Luhansk and Donetsk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


An intelligence report <\/a>from the British defense ministry published Wednesday said: \u201cUkraine continues to make progress in offensive operations along both the north-eastern and southern fronts. In the north-east, in Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine has now consolidated a substantial area of territory east of the Oskil River.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The report said it was \u201chighly likely\u201d that Ukrainian troops could strike the Svatove-Kremina road, an important supply chain for Russian troops in the Luhansk region behind the new front line following Ukraine\u2019s lightning counteroffensive in the region, which has resulted in the liberation of Izyum, in Kharkiv region, and Lyman, in Donetsk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
