Ukrainian presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych said on Friday Ukrainian troops had repulsed the first attack by Russian forces on the town of Slavutych, where workers at the defunct Chernobyl nuclear plant live.

Earlier on Friday, local authorities said Slavutych was isolated, with Russian forces just beyond the town's limits.
