Ukraine’s military command says that government forces have killed “around 50 Russian occupiers” while repulsing an attack on a town on the frontline with Moscow-backed rebels.
AFP could not immediately confirm the death toll.
“Shchastya is under control. 50 Russian occupiers were killed. Another Russian plane was destroyed in the Kramatorsk district. This is the sixth,” the armed forces general staff writes on Twitter.
