Ukraine says it has liberated four villages in the south-east of the country in the first victories of its counter-offensive.
Officials reported on Monday that "the national flag is once again waving" over Storozhove, along with neighbouring settlements of Blahodatne and Neskuchne, as well as nearby Makarivka in the Donetsk region.
Moscow has yet to confirm the fall of any of the villages – which are relatively small, and says Ukrainian assaults in the region have been repelled.
