Wanajeshi zaidi ya 5,000 waogopa kuzingirwa, waamua kutoka nduki, ni mojawapo wa miji ambayo walikua wamejichukulia, shughuli inaishia Crimea maana ndiko ilianzia...
Sijui mgambo wanywa gongo watafanya nini tofauti na hawa wanajeshi wanaokimbia mapambano.
Russia has withdrawn troops from the city of Lyman in Ukraine’s Donetsk region Saturday, one day after announcing the annexation of the area and three other regions.
Ukrainian officials said earlier that their soldiers had surrounded the city.
The Russian state-owned news agency RIA reported that the Russian Defense Ministry said its forces retreated to more advantageous lines to avoid the risk of being encircled.
The ministry said Ukraine has a significant advantage in the number of its forces and brought in reserves to continue its counteroffensive retaking territory that has been captured by Russia.
Lyman has been held by Russia since May.
A video posted on Twitter by a reporter for The Kyiv Independent showed two Ukrainian soldiers tying a flag to a sign after retaking the city.
Serhiy Haidai, the regional governor of the Luhansk region, said in a tweet on Saturday that Ukrainian forces had blocked almost all ways for 5,000 Russian troops to leave the city or transport ammunition to other Russian soldiers. He said Ukraine would seek to recapture Luhansk after Lyman is retaken.
