Fall of Avdiivka
Russia says it has taken full control of the eastern Ukrainian town of Avdiivka, after Ukraine pulled its troops out on Saturday.
Footage from Russian state media shows Russian soldiers occupying the now-ruined former industrial hub in the Donbass region. Moscow has claimed that Ukraine’s retreat was so rushed and poorly planned that some Ukrainian forces were left behind. Ukraine’s military has acknowledged casualties during the withdrawal, but says the situation is stable. Taking Avdiivka is Moscow’s biggest win on the battlefield since the capture of the city of Bakhmut last May.
