Ukrainian forces withdraw from the city of Abdiyevka in the eastern part of the country. It is the first significant achievement by Putin's military since May.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said that his forces managed to "exhaust" the Russian forces in the city. He said that he agrees with the decision to withdraw from it to save the lives of the soldiers, while urging his allies in the West to increase military aid to his army. "Russia has long-range weapons, while we simply don't have enough," he said.
