The Russian Ministry of Defense states that two villages along the front line in Ukraine have been captured. It concerns the village of Andrijivka in the Luhansk region and Pishtjane in the Kharkiv region.

Russia says it has captured a string of villages, many of them consisting of only a few streets and abandoned buildings, in recent weeks.
