Ukraine has refuted Russian claims it has captured the eastern town of Soledar. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says his forces are still fighting in the small salt-mining town, which Moscow wants to secure to help its offensive on nearby Bakhmut. The head of the Wagner mercenary group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, had accused Russia’s military establishment of trying to ‘steal victory’ in Soledar. Zelenskyy has called the Russian infighting “a clear sign of failure for the enemy”.

Ukraine and Russia are locked in an information war as well as a deadly struggle on the ground in Soledar, a salt mining town in Ukraine’s eastern Donetsk region, at the end of the 46th week of the war. The Wagner Group’s mercenaries have been fighting to take Soledar for weeks in an apparent effort to encircle Bakhmut, 10km (four miles) to the south, which has been the focus of Russian offensive operations since September. The fighting there, and in Bakhmut, has led to some of the bloodiest battles of the war so far. Al Jazeera’s Natacha Butler reports from Kyiv.
