The Russian invasion of Ukraine has stalled on all fronts, the UK Ministry of Defense said on its official Twitter account on Thursday. “Russian forces have made minimal progress on land, sea or air in recent days and continue to suffer heavy losses,” it said, adding that Ukrainian resistance remained strong.
“The vast majority of Ukrainian territory, including all major cities, remains in Ukrainian hands.” An earlier intelligence ministry report said Russia is resorting to using older, less accurate weapons, less militarily effective and more likely to result in civilian casualties.

Forces moving into Kiev, including the infamous convoy to the north, did not progress appreciably over the weekend, the official said, although the US saw Russia trying to “flow forces behind the advanced elements” moving north of Kiev. Kiev.
