The Russian Defense Ministry announced on Tuesday that they had taken control of the Ukrainian town of Selydove, located southeast of the key city of Pokrovsk in the Donetsk region. This strategic advancement comes as part of Russia's ongoing assault and incremental territorial gains in eastern Ukraine.
Reports from the frontline indicate that Russian forces have been advancing on Selydove over the past few weeks. The town served as an important staging area for Ukraine's defenses and a crucial foothold to prevent Russia's further advance towards Pokrovsk.
