Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy postponed all foreign travel as the battlefield situation continued to deteriorate on Wednesday, with Ukrainian officials saying Russian infantry had entered the northeastern border town of Vovchansk in Kharkiv region.
The capture of that town five kilometres from the border would be Russia’s most significant gain since it launched an incursion into the Kharkiv region on Friday, opening a new front and forcing Kyiv to rush in reinforcements.
The assault keeps Ukraine’s stretched and depleted forces off balance ahead of what Zelenskyy has said could be a big Russian offensive in the coming weeks. Moscow has been slowly making ground in the east for months.
