Ukraine says it has reclaimed territory back to Russian border in northeast

Ukraine says it has reclaimed an area about the size of Rhode Island in the northeast part of the country in an intense counteroffensive centering around the country's second largest city, Kharkiv. Retired U.S. Army Brig. Gen. Peter Zwack, a senior fellow at the Wilson Center, joins CBS News to discuss Ukraine's strategy and what it means for the future of the war.

This is old. They have liberated almost 9000 km^2 of territory. Thats nearly twice the size of Delaware. Not the size of RI.

Honestly, Russia falling for such a feint just shows how weak their commanders are.

The timing is not good for Russia. The obvious push to retake the territory will be complicated by the coming winter.

I talked to a woman from the city of Izyum. Her sister couldn’t leave the city when it got under the AFU. She has a paralyzed husband. Her story brings shivers! After the AFU came, violence is off limits. Search and seizure everywhere, terrible looting, murders. It’s the Zapadentsy who came, the Western Ukrainians, who are especially anti-Russian. They say it blatantly that all of us are Moskals and Vata. This means we get no mercy. We lived with Russians happily for three months so all of us are traitors, and now we are nothing! They take everything: TVs, smartphones, home appliances, food. They arrested dozens of people and took them away. They shot several people right on the spot, those who tried to stop the looting. Now they say they’ll shoot everyone who tries to pay with Russian rubles in shops. We asked where we could get grivnas and they told us: “Suck it! Now this is your main job!” Now those who were sitting quietly and waiting for the AFU to come, all of them are now out in the open. And they are settling scores with their personal enemies. They simply accuse them of cooperating with the Russians, and these people are taken away. Most likely to be shot. The city is paralyzed with terror.
