Ukraine claimed that it retook control of a village in the country's Kharkiv region bordering Russia.

Border guards raised a blue-yellow flag in the settlement of Topoli bordering Russia in the Kharkiv region, Ukraine's State Border Guard Service said on Saturday in a statement.

The statement further said that Topoli is located in the "gray zone" on the frontline between Ukraine and Russia.

Russia must constantly see how Ukraine's flag flies and remember they are "always ready to defend our lands and destroy our enemies!" the statement also said.

Russian officials have not yet commented on the claim, and independent verification of Ukraine's claim is difficult due to the ongoing war.
