[London, 25th Archyde.com]-The Russian Defense Ministry said on the 25th that the first phase of “military operations” in Ukraine was almost completed and that it would focus on the complete “liberation” of the Donbus region in eastern Ukraine.
The Pentagon’s announcement suggested that Russia may have switched to a more limited target in the face of fierce resistance from Ukraine.
According to the Russian state news agency, pro-Russian factions currently control 93% of Lugansk and 54% of Donetsk in the Donbus region.
