In a significant development, Russia’s Defense Ministry has announced that its forces have taken control of two strategic villages in Ukraine’s eastern Donetsk region.
The villages, Pustynka and Sukhi Yaly, are located near the cities of Pokrovsk and Kurakhove, respectively, which are crucial strongholds of Ukrainian forces in the region.
This latest gain marks a significant milestone in Russia’s ongoing military campaign in eastern Ukraine, which has been ongoing since February 2022.
