Russia captures entire Luhansk

TEHRAN, Jul. 01 (MNA) – A Russian official says that Moscow forces have managed to capture the entire Luhansk region in Ukraine.

A Russia-appointed official in Ukraine’s Luhansk region said that Moscow’s forces have overrun all of it — one of four regions Russia annexed from Ukraine in September 2022.

If confirmed, that would make Luhansk the first Ukrainian region fully captured by Russia after more than three years of war.

There was no immediate comment from Kyiv on the claim made by Leonid Pasechnik.
