Ukrainian gains prompt Russian military to withdraw from Kharkiv area

Russian Defense Ministry announces it was pulling back troops from two areas in Ukraine's eastern Kharkiv region after days of apparent advances by Ukraine. "The Russian army in these days is demonstrating the best that it can do – showing its back," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says. "And, of course, it's a good decision for them to run."
