European leaders sought to ease the impact of high energy prices across the continent after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned of a difficult winter, even as he reported progress in a counter-offensive against Russian troops, APA reports citing Reuters.

In Sunday's nightly remarks, Zelenskyy thanked his forces for taking two settlements in the south and a third, along with additional territory, in the east, citing "good reports" from his military commanders and intelligence head.

Kyrylo Tymoshenko, deputy head of the president's office, earlier posted an image of soldiers raising the Ukrainian flag over a village he said was in the southern area that is the main focus of the counter-offensive.

"Vysokopillya. Kherson region. Ukraine. Today," Tymoshenko wrote on Facebook over a photograph of three soldiers on rooftops, one of them fixing a Ukrainian flag to a post.
