Hackers in occupied Crimea breached Russian cable channels and released a video hinting at a looming counteroffensive.
Ukrainian hackers breached Russian TV channels in occupied Crimea Sunday, broadcasting a slickly-produced video hinting at the impending start of Kyiv’s counteroffensive.
The clip ended with a shot of two fighter jets soaring in the sky – an apparent nod to Ukraine’s efforts to procure warplanes from its Western allies — and a man’s voice off camera saying: “shhh.” “We are going to find every traitor to Ukraine, wherever they might be. All of them will be destroyed,” Budanov warned. “I say to all the patriots: the time has come to act. Stay tuned. We’re coming to you. Glory to Ukraine!”

Ukraine keeps up pressure following Russian declaration of victory in BakhmutDefenders of Ukraine's city of Bakhmut are keeping up the pressure even though Russian forces declared victory there after the longest, deadliest battle of the war so far.

Ukrainian defenders still control the western fringes of Bakhmut. From the Kremlin’s perspective, the area around the city is part of the more than 1,000-kilometer (621-mile) front line that the Russian military must hold.
