right there on the screen. but not as much as the kremlin clearly expected or hoped. nick paton walsh joins us now live from southern ukraine. nick, what progress, if any, have the russians made in this second phase of their campaign? well, certainly it is unclear if they are seeing that dramatic change in pace and territorial gains that they had advertised ahead of this regrouping and pushing to the donbas. ukraine seems to be on the counteroffensive in some areas and still in this city of mariupol, predominantly under russian control, azovstal steel plant is holding out relentless bombardment, civilians caught inside and i think a sense of this being so symbolic now for ukraine s tenacity here. we spoke to a ukrainian marine who served in the same city, in a different steel plant, taken by the russians and he talked to us about what he endured in the fight there and after he was taken prisoner, injured there. this is how the war ends. but if you told him he was lucky, he
