Ukraine war map shows counteroffensive gains as US M1 Abrams tanks arrive

Ukrainian troops have continued to make incremental gains against Russia, the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) has said, with its map shows Kyiv's progress at a time when long-awaited U.S.-supplied weapons to Kyiv are making headlines.

The Washington-based think tank said on Tuesday that Ukrainian forces had continued to advance near Bakhmut in the Donetsk oblast and in western Zaporizhzhia during the counteroffensive, which is aimed at recapturing Russian-occupied territory.
