Russia Claims Three More Villages in Eastern Ukraine Offensive

Russia says it has taken three more small towns in eastern Ukraine.

This is part of a slow fight where Russia keeps trying to move forward, but Ukraine is having a hard time defending their spots.

Ukraine's leader is asking other countries for help.

Videos show the towns Russia captured are now destroyed.

Even though Russia has more soldiers and weapons, their fight is slow and costs a lot because Ukraine has built strong defenses.

Also, efforts to stop the fight and make peace haven't worked because Russia isn't willing to stop taking land.
