Russia announced Saturday it captured Novomykolaivka, a village in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region, escalating tensions as Kyiv disputes the claim. 🌍⚔️ Moscow’s forces say they reached the area earlier this month, but Ukrainian military analysts at DeepState insist the village remains under Kyiv’s control.
The reported advance comes as Russian troops now hold roughly 20% of Ukrainian territory. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned Friday that Vladimir Putin aims to 'occupy all of Ukraine,' dismissing territorial concessions as ineffective. 💬 'He won’t stop until he achieves his goal,' Zelenskyy declared.
Meanwhile, the Kremlin stated peace talks are currently 'on pause,' citing failed diplomatic efforts. 🔄 The conflicting narratives highlight the war’s complexity, with social media flooded by real-time battlefield updates and fiery debates among global observers.
As smoke rises over cities like Dnipro, the world watches whether this latest claim signals a tactical shift—or more grinding stalemate. 📈🔍
