— Read on euromaidanpress.com/2023/09/25/british-intel-failed-russian-counterattacks-underscore-minimal-offensive-capability/- Over the last week, Russian forces have made a concerted effort to conduct local counter attacks against advancing Ukrainian forces in both the Orikhiv and Bakhmut sectors.

- Over the last nine months, the Russian force in Ukraine has proved itself capable of conducting stalwart defensive operations.
