Ukraine's army on Wednesday denied that it had lost Krynky, its bridgehead on the Russian-occupied side of the Dnipro river, a day after Russia's defence minister said the area had been taken.
"We officially inform that this information is not true," the command of the Ukrainian army on the southern front said on social media. "The defense forces of southern Ukraine continue to hold their positions (in Krynky)."
