Rusia susține că a capturat 19 așezări din sud-estul Ucrainei

Russian forces claim to have taken control of 19 settlements in southeastern Ukraine, according to the Russian Defense Ministry. The report, presented by commander Piotr Bolgarev, did not specify the locations. Additionally, Russia announced control over Ribalskoie in Zaporozhye. Independent verification of these claims is not possible. Despite ongoing attacks, Russian advances have slowed this year. Meanwhile, Ukraine's President Zelensky stated that Ukrainian forces have regained 745 square kilometers of territory from Russia in the southeast. Both sides present conflicting assessments of territorial gains.
