Ukrainian forces push Russians from area near Toretske

Ukrainian forces cleared Russian troops from an area near Toretske in Donetsk Oblast's Pokrovsk district, according to battlefield monitoring group DeepState, part of the broader Operation Vivaldi offensive first publicly confirmed by a Ukrainian commander on Sept. 15. Officials say the operation has cleared 75 square kilometers and liberated 10 square kilometers so far.

Ukraine's Defense Forces say Russian losses in the operation total roughly 1,500 troops along with thousands of drones and armored vehicles, and that Ukrainian units have disrupted Russian supply routes. Additional villages, including Shandryholove and Derylove, were confirmed liberated days earlier, though officials say some details remain undisclosed for operational security.
