Russia's defense ministry on Thursday, May 11, denied reports that Ukrainian forces had broken through in various places along the front lines and said the military situation was under control. Moscow reacted after Russian military bloggers, writing on the Telegram messaging app, reported what they said were Ukrainian advances north and south of the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, with some suggesting a long-awaited counteroffensive by pro-Kyiv forces had started. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy had earlier said the offensive had yet to start.
