Ukraine has reportedly re-taken its land by seizing the city of Chuhuiv while killing two top military commanders during battle.
According to local media reports, the startling revelations came into play after the country’s General Staff stated how they had reclaimed their city from Russian troops during an intense gun battle.
Many referred to the city as a strategic location that is present only 23 miles away from the city of Kharkiv, which is situated in the eastern part of the country.
In the same way, the General Staff spoke in detail about how it was a day comprising of great losses for Russian forces as Ukraine’s defensive forces paved the way for victory during a battle where Russians lost plenty of their equipment and military personnel.
The city that was retaken is known to have a mighty population comprising of 31,000 men and is near to Ukraine’s second-biggest city that is subjected to an intense bombardment of the military.
Meanwhile, a recent post on Facebook by the General Staff shed light upon how the city of Chuihuiv was once again free or liberated from Putin’s men.
“Today is a day where the occupiers have suffered greatly”- the post went on to read.
The killed commanders were also identified by Russia and they included Lieutenant Colonel Dmitry Safronov and Lieutenant Colonel Denis Glebov.
This particular city was subject to a great degree of shelling ever since the war began. Moreover, it was also the exact place where an airstrike had taken place and wounded one female civilian who has now become a defining image of the ongoing conflict between both sides.
Despite the ongoing heavy shelling and bombardment from all aspects, Ukraine is currently doing a great job at holding Russia back and launching a series of counter-attacks to help regain their city.
