The strategic town of Velikaya Novoselka in the Donetsk People’s Republic has been liberated, the military has said
Russian troops have taken over the town of Velikaya Novoselka in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), the Defense Ministry in Moscow reported on Sunday. Previously considered Kiev’s ‘last stronghold’ in southern Donbass, the town was a key component of Ukraine’s heavily fortified defensive line in the region and served as a major logistics hub for Ukrainian troops.
Velikaya Novoselka was a centerpiece of the ‘Vremevka Ledge’, a string of villages in the west of the DPR that the Ukrainian military turned into a major defensive position. The area on the border between the DPR and neighboring Zaporozhye Region saw combat during the unsuccessful Ukrainian counteroffensive in summer 2023, when several local settlements were seized by Kiev.
In November 2024, Russian forces launched a major offensive of their own in the area and eventually managed to virtually encircle Velikaya Novoselka in January, after taking control of several smaller settlements to the southwest and the village of Novy Komar to the north.
