A Russia state-media host has called for the country's generals to be shot for allowing troops to retreat from large swathes of Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in his Saturday night address that Ukrainian forces have regained 1,250 square kilometers of territory in the country's Kharkiv region.

The speed of the counteroffensive has seen Russian soldiers flee the region in a variety of ways. Russian forces took less territory in five months than the Ukrainians did in five days.

State-media that have been optimistic about the war in Ukraine have expressed disappointment at Russia's struggles in the region.
