Ukrainian forces have "highly likely" recaptured an area of territory occupied by Russia since 2014, the UK's Ministry of Defence has said.

In a new intelligence update, British officials said small advances have been made east from Krasnohorivka near Donetsk, which sits on the old Line of Control.

 

"Recent multiple concurrent Ukrainian assaults throughout the Donbas" may have also left separatist forces in the area overstretched, the UK's analysis added.

This is believed to be one of the first instances of gains being made since the war began last February.
