MOSCOW • Russian forces have taken full control of Pisky, a village on the outskirts of Ukraine’s Donetsk region, Interfax cited the Russian defence ministry as saying yesterday.
Russian and pro-Russian forces had reported that they had taken full control of Pisky more than a week ago.
The ministry also said Russian forces had destroyed a US-supplied Himars rocket system near Ukraine’s Kramatorsk and a depot with ammunition for the system, Interfax reported.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is nearing the six-month mark, and its troops continue to concentrate on their bid to establish full control over Luhansk and Donetsk.
Ukraine’s military yesterday said Russian armed forces continued shelling in the vicinity of the strategic eastern cities of Slovyansk and Kramatorsk and other targets.
