Ukraine's military command announced a strategic withdrawal from Vuhledar to protect personnel and equipment, as Russian forces intensified their attacks from multiple directions.
The fall of Vuhledar marks a significant victory for Russia amidst ongoing advances in the eastern Donetsk region, raising concerns for neighboring urban areas under pressure.
As Russian troops capture towns in eastern Ukraine, experts suggest that Kyiv may soon retreat from other vulnerable locations like Toretsk and Selydove.
Despite heavy losses sustained by Russian forces during the prolonged engagement at Vuhledar, the city's fall signifies a shift in control, bolstering Kremlin morale.
