Quote: "As of now, we have not had any significant changes in the operational situation. The enemy has been stopped in almost all directions where they were advancing.
In some areas, the enemy was thrown back. In particular, in the last few days, the enemy has been pushed back from the capital by about 70 kilometres."

While it is evident that Russian forces have made virtually no progress towards Kiev in the past week, and some of the success of the counter-offensives is utterly plausible; looking at a map with a 70km ruler, I'm having trouble guessing what area he could be talking about.

Good news, perhaps too good. Any independent confirmation?

I so hope this is true.
