Russia claims capture of Blagodatne, village north of Ukraine's Bakhmut | AFP
Russian Defence Ministry spokesperson Igor Konashenkov claims that Russian troops have "liberated" the village of Blagodatne, north of the eastern Ukrainian town of Bakhmut.
Russia has been seeking to seize Bakhmut for months in some of the heaviest fighting since President Vladimir Putin sent troops to Ukraine in February last year.
