Ukrainian officials did not address the Russian announcement concerning the two villages but President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Kyiv’s counter-offensive operation near the town of Dobropillia made progress.
The Russian Defence Ministry said its forces were now in control of Shandryholove and Zarichne both northeast of the city of Sloviansk.
Video released by Russia’s Ministry of Defence purports to show Russian troops moving from building to building and holding aloft a Russian flag as they take control of Shandryholove.
Ukraine’s military made no acknowledgment of Zarichne changing hands but a lengthy media report on Saturday said the village was under Ukrainian control though Russian soldiers had entered parts of it.
Top Ukrainian commander Oleksandr Syrskyi who last week said the front line now extended over 1,250 kilometres provided similar details on the Dobropillia operation on Telegram.
The popular Ukrainian war blog DeepState which uses open sources to track the positions of the two sides said Ukrainian forces had given up the village of Poltavka east of Dobropillia. – Reuters
