The UN General Assembly (UNGA) will hold a two-day special session on Wednesday to mark the one year anniversary of Russia's "special military operation" in Ukraine.

In the latest news from the frontlines: Ukraine's counteroffensive has produced major territorial gains and forced Russian troops to retreat as the war rages on. Over the past week, Ukrainian forces have reclaimed over 9,000 square kilometres of territory once held by Russia, according to the Institute for the Study of War, which has closely tracked the conflict since it began in February 2022.

The counteroffensive has borne the most fruit in the northeastern Kharkiv region, which has been almost completely liberated by Ukraine, but is also driving the Russians back in the southern province of Kherson, where Kyiv hopes to retake control of ports along the Black Sea.
