A Ukrainian military official said local defenders in the eastern part of the country are holding firm so far against a concerted push by Russia's better-equipped forces.
"The enemy is actively attacking along the entire front line, and in several directions they have achieved certain tactical advances," he said on national television. "The situation is changing dynamically."
Russia has pushed Ukraine onto the back foot on the battlefield as Kyiv grapples with shortages of troops and ammunition. Ukrainian forces are now racing to build more defensive fortifications at places along the around 1,000-kilometer (600-mile) front line.
