Good morning to readers. Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.
And I’m back in the capital.
The counteroffensive for which this publication is named after may still be a ways off.
Ukraine is waiting for more equipment from its western partners, Zelenskyy said.
"We can go forward and be successful," Zelenskyy told reporters.
"But we'd lose a lot of people. I think that's unacceptable. So we need to wait. We still need a bit more time."

Meanwhile the head of the Wagner Group, the Russian mercenary organization, said that Ukraine's counteroffensive is “in full swing.” “Zelenskyy is lying,” said Yevgeny Prigozhin.
