Russian Forces Reportedly Capture Two Settlements in Donetsk
Russia’s Defense Ministry has claimed that Russian forces have captured two settlements in Ukraine’s Donetsk region Krasnopodoliye and Orekhovatka.
The reported advances would mark another territorial gain for Russian forces as fighting continues along the Donetsk front, where Moscow has been intensifying pressure on Ukrainian positions.
The claims have not been independently verified, and battlefield control can change rapidly amid ongoing combat.
