Putin's Men 'Weaken' Kyiv's Counteroffensive; 23 Attacks 'Fail,' Over 750 Troops 'Wiped Out'

The Russian defence ministry has said that its troops repelled 23 Ukrainian attacks and wiped out over 750 soldiers in the last 24 hours in Donetsk, Krasny Liman and Kupyansk areas along the frontline. They also reportedly shot down an Ukrainian Su-25 aircraft, intercepted a HIMARS projectile and a Storm Shadow missile and destroyed over 28 Ukrainian drones. This comes as President Vladimir Putin blamed foreign mercenaries' 'stupidity' for Ukraine's 'failed' counteroffensive. Watch this video for more updates from the Russia-Ukraine conflict zone.
