and Front-Line Claims Ukrainian President
Volodymyr Zelensky reported unusual activity on the Belarusian side of the northern border with Ukraine on Friday. He stated that Ukraine was monitoring the situation and would respond if necessary. Belarus has allowed Russia to use its territory for military operations and to host tactical nuclear weapons.
Russia announced Saturday that its forces had captured the village of Myropillia in Ukraine's northeastern Sumy region. The claim could not be independently verified, and Ukrainian officials did not immediately respond.
A Russian strike damaged port infrastructure in the Black Sea city of Odesa, with no casualties reported. In Russia's Krasnodar region, a fire at an oil terminal in the Black Sea city of Tuapse was extinguished Saturday following a Ukrainian strike on Friday.
Ukrainian drones have targeted the Tuapse oil refinery and export terminal four times in just over two weeks, causing fires and evacuations.
