00:00 Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky visited the front line in the Kupyansk region on Monday
00:08 in a trip aimed at boosting morale.
00:11 With depleted stocks of ammunition and a delay in a much needed US aid package, the Ukrainian
00:17 leader says Russia is taking advantage and amassing maximum reserves at key points on
00:21 the battlefront.
00:24 Ukrainian troops have recently been forced to withdraw from the town of Avyghe, having
00:28 been outnumbered by Russian forces after four months of assault.
00:32 Russia's Ministry of Defense has released footage of its troops taking back the city.
00:38 The victory is "positive for Russia," said Putin, days ahead of the two-year anniversary
00:43 of the war.
00:47 A Russian state broadcaster has also aired footage showing troops searching through the
00:51 remains of the newly captured city for mines and booby traps.
