Ukraine announced on Sunday that its troops had reclaimed the village of Klishchiivka, southwest of the occupied city of Bakhmut.
The recapturing of Klishchiivka is a major milestone in Ukraine's ongoing counteroffensive, which for months has been focused on reclaiming Russian-occupied territory in the southeast. Zelensky has promised that the war cannot end until all of Ukraine is returned to Kyiv, including the Crimean Peninsula, which was annexed by Russia in 2014.
Ukrainian military spokesperson Illia Yevlash wrote on Telegram Sunday that the battle to retake Klishchiivka inflicted"powerful damage" on Moscow's forces in the area. "So now we have gained a base that will allow us to continue to develop offensive actions and liberate our land from the invaders," Yevlash added.

Ukraine announced Sunday that it had successfully recaptured another village around Bakhmut as its counteroffensive forges ahead.Ukraine's troops have continued to make slow but tactical gains as they close in on the city of Bakhmut, which was taken by Russia in May.
