Moscow [Russia], May 23: The Russian Ministry of Defence on Wednesday said its troops have recaptured the village of Klishchiivka in eastern Ukraine.
Russian forces initially occupied the village near the key city of Bakhmut in early 2023, but it was liberated by Ukraine later that year during Kiev's counteroffensive.
Moscow said its troops gained control of Klishchiivka "as a result of offensive operations." Ukrainian authorities had said earlier on Wednesday that the situation in the village was "under control." Russia has been waging a bloody war on Ukraine since February 2022.
In recent months, it has exploited a fall in Western ammunitions supplies to Kiev to make renewed advances in northern and eastern Ukraine.
