White House Hails Ukraine's 'Extraordinary Victory' in Kherson

The White House on Saturday hailed what it said appeared to be an "extraordinary victory" for Ukraine in recapturing the city of Kherson from Russian occupiers, reports AFP.

"It does look as though the Ukrainians have just won an extraordinary victory where the one regional capital that Russia had seized in this war is now back under a Ukrainian flag -- and that is quite a remarkable thing," National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan told reporters on the way to the ASEAN summit in Cambodia.
