Ukraine’s president says 3 more settlements liberated in Kherson region
KYIV, Ukraine (AA) – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that three more settlements in the country’s Kherson region have been liberated from “Russian occupiers”.
“Only during this day in the Kherson region, such settlements as Novovoskresenske, Novohryhorivka and Petropavlivka were liberated from the sham referendum and stabilized,” Zelenskyy said in a video message on Telegram, referring to four so-called referendums recently held in Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine.
Over the past few days, the Ukrainian army has achieved significant military successes on two fronts.
In the east, Ukrainian forces managed to take back control of Lyman, a railway hub in the Donetsk region, while also breaking through Russian defense lines in the south to advance along the Dnipro River.
