The fighting in Ukraine looks increasingly like a stalemate on the ground, with the two sides trading control of a town in the east. Ukrainian forces retook control of Trotsyanest, in the eastern region of Sumy.

Dozens of destroyed Russian army vehicles, including tanks and heavy artillery, were either abandoned behind by the retreating forces or destroyed.

Meanwhile, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukrainian forces are advancing in the Kyiv region on Monday and are pushing Russian troops away from the capital and Irpin.

However, he added that Russia still controls northern parts of Kyiv region. The mayor of Irpin also said that the city has been “liberated” from Russian troops.
