Andriivka is around 14km south of the city with a pre-war population of fewer than 100.
KYIV: Ukraine said today its forces had retaken a village near the war-battered city of Bakhmut in the eastern Donetsk region, several months into its grinding counter-offensive against entrenched Russian positions.
Kyiv began pushing back against Moscow’s forces in the south and east of the country in June after building up western weapons and recruiting assault battalions. “We are moving forward in the Bakhmut sector. On the northern flank, the enemy is trying to recapture lost ground. On the southern flank, we are making progress,” deputy defence minister Hanna Maliar, said on social media.Bakhmut, a town that was once home to around 70,000 people, was captured by Russian forces in May following one of the longest and bloodiest battles of Russia’s invasion.
Ukrainian forces, however, almost immediately began pushing back around the northern and southern flanks of the city and have been posting incremental gains. Andriivka is around 14km south of Bakhmut, with an estimated pre-war population of fewer than 100 people.
