Russia takes Vuhledar: Eastern town strategic for artillery positions
After months of intense fighting, Russia has captured the strategic town of Vuhledar in Eastern Ukraine. Vuhledar’s high-ground position offers a crucial advantage for Russian artillery operations. The town, located in the Donetsk region, was fiercely defended by Ukrainian forces for over two years. However, Ukraine made the tactical decision to retreat in order to reduce casualties.
