Ukrainian forces have retaken control of parts of the strategically crucial city of Kherson, the Pentagon said Friday.
Kherson — which sits at the mouth of the Dnieper River that bisects Ukraine and is directly north of the Crimean peninsula annexed by Russia in 2014 — was the first and only major population center that had been taken by Russian forces since the start of the invasion last month.
“Kherson is contested territory again,” a senior US defense official said, adding that Russian forces no longer control the area and Ukrainians were continuing to wage a fierce fight there.
