MOSCOW, June 26. /TASS/. Russian troops liberated the community of Ivolzhanskoye in the Sumy Region over the week of June 20-26 in the special military operation in Ukraine, Russia’s Defense Ministry reported on Friday.
"Over the week, Battlegroup North units gained control of the settlement of Ivolzhanskoye in the Sumy Region through active operations," the ministry said in a statement.
The liberation of Ivolzhanskoye located on the bank of the Oleshnya River 25 km from Sumy expands the security zone along the border of Russia’s Kursk Region and bolsters the Russian army’s positions in the Sumy direction, the ministry reported earlier.
Russia’s Battlegroup North units are daily moving forward, driving out Ukrainian troops farther away from the Russian state border, ensuring the security of civilians, it said.
