Ukrainian forces liberated a village in the Donetsk region, and are closer to regain control of the neighboring Luhansk region, reports quoting the Ukrainian military say.
Ukraine attacked Russian military units in the city of Kreminna during efforts to retake Luhansk on Sunday, according to a Ukrainian military spokesman.
Both Donetsk and Luhansk are Russian-occupied areas that President Vladimir Putin last month announced to have annexed after holding referendums.
