Stubborn battles are going on,"

As The New York Times wrote, Russia has been trying for the second week to capture Vuhledar, which is located at the junction of the eastern front in the Donetsk region and the southern front in the Zaporozhye region.. Near Ugledar is the only railway line that connects Donbass and Crimea: the capture of the city would allow Moscow to more easily transfer troops between the southern and eastern fronts of the war.
