At the beginning of June, the Armed Forces of Ukraine launched a counteroffensive in the south and east of the country, liberating occupied territories and consolidating its positions on the frontlines.
Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov stated that the recent modest successes of the Ukrainian forces were just a preliminary "preview" of a much larger offensive yet to come.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
