Kyiv: A Ukrainian border town caught in the crosshairs of a Russian offensive earlier this year has been devastated by fighting, aerial video published by the Ukrainian army showed.
Vovchansk in Ukraine's northeast Kharkiv region was home to some 17,000 people before Moscow's troops stormed across the border in May, triggering a battle that has lasted for months.
Aerial imagery published by Ukraine's Separate Presidential Brigade on Thursday showed rows of crumbling residential blocks charred by fire and piles of rubble blocking streets.
Some buildings had been flattened, with only their foundations visible.
