Ukraine says its forces have pushed back Russian troops by more than a kilometer in several areas in the eastern Donbas region.

In the past few days, Kyiv has stepped up its operations around the city of Bakhmut, which Wagner forces seized after months of intense fighting and then handed over to Russian soldiers.

There are no official data on exactly how many Ukrainian soldiers have been killed on the battlefield since the war began 16 months ago. Some estimates putting the number close to 18 thousand. With the ongoing counteroffensive, these numbers are expected to rise. That leaves more people dealing with the loss of loved ones, especially the wives of fallen soldiers.
DW’s Aya Ibrahim met with a woman who has created a community to help widows deal with their loss.
