After a week of heavy fighting, the real tests of Kyiv's counteroffensive lie ahead, with Ukrainian troops some distance from Russia's main defensive line and the bulk of forces prepared for the push still on standby.
Czech President Petr Pavel on the Ukrainian offensive:
"This is the only the beginning. I believe that we have not seen the real counteroffensive. It will be in the future. What we see now, and I have some military experience, would be called shaping.
“The counteroffensive has not yet begun, Ukrainian soldiers are conducting testing on the front line, namely, offensive actions in order to identify Russian weaknesses,” adviser to the Head of the Presidential office Podolyak said.
Aparently it hasn’t even begun yet:
