Russia Says Captured Ukraine Village Near Logistics Hub

Russian military claims control of Dorozhnyanka

The Russian military said on Friday that it had captured the village of Dorozhnyanka in eastern Ukraine, which is located near a key logistics hub in the Donetsk region.

Claim contested by Ukraine

Ukrainian officials have denied the claim, saying that fighting is still ongoing in the area. The village is located near the city of Bakhmut, which has been a focal point of the fighting in recent weeks.

Capture would be a significant gain for Russia

If confirmed, the capture of Dorozhnyanka would be a significant gain for Russia, as it would give them control of a key supply route into Bakhmut. The village is also located near the town of Soledar, which is another key target for the Russian military.

Fighting continues in eastern Ukraine

The fighting in eastern Ukraine has been intense in recent weeks, with both sides claiming to have made gains. The Russian military has been making a concerted effort to capture Bakhmut, but Ukrainian forces have been able to hold them back so far.

Civilians caught in the crossfire

The fighting has had a devastating impact on civilians in the region, with many forced to flee their homes. The United Nations estimates that over 10 million people have been displaced within Ukraine since the start of the war.

International community condemns Russian aggression

The international community has condemned Russia's aggression in Ukraine, and has imposed sanctions on the country in an effort to pressure it to end the war. However, Russia has so far shown no signs of backing down, and the fighting is likely to continue in the coming weeks and months.
