Wakati Ukraine ikikumbwa na hamas za chini kabisa katika vita na upungufu wa askari na silaha,imeelezwa wapiganaji kutoka Chenchnya wamefanikiwa kuwasukuma nyuma wapiganaji wa Ukraine waliojipenyeza ndani ya mipaka ya Urusi mwezi uliopita.
Habari hizo zinakwenda sambamba na taarifa ya jeshi la Urusi kwamba wameteka maeneo kadhaa ya Donest na kukaribia kuuchukua mji wa kistratejia wa Provosk.

Moscow’s troops have retaken some 10 settlements, claims major general; no comment from Ukraine.
A senior military commander says Russian forces have launched a major counteroffensive in Kursk, claiming gains in some territory seized by Ukrainian forces last month.
Major General Apti Alaudinov, speaking to Russia’s TASS news agency on Wednesday, said the campaign has successfully pushed Ukrainian troops out of “about 10 settlements” they had captured in the western region.
“The situation is good for us,” Alaudinov, who commands Chechnya’s Akhmat special forces who are fighting in Kursk, was quoted by TASS as saying.
Alaudinov’s claims were echoed by several pro-Russian war bloggers reporting on the Russian counteroffensive in Kursk.
Influential blogger Yuri Podolyaka said Russian forces had taken several villages on the west of the sliver of Russia that Ukraine had taken, pushing Ukrainian forces to the east of the Malaya Loknya River south of Snagost.
The statements could not be independently verified, while Ukraine has not commented.
The battlefield claims come a month after Ukrainian forces waged the biggest foreign attack on Russia since World War II, smashing through the border into Kursk aided with swarms of drones, heavy weaponry and artillery, some Western-made.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the attack was an attempt to bring the war to Russia, to force Putin to peace and to carve out a buffer zone to prevent Russian attacks on the neighbouring Sumy region.
As of last week, he said Ukrainian forces were in control of 100 settlements in the region, spanning an area of more than 1,300 sq km (500 sq miles).
