The mechanized and integrated units of the Zaporizhia Separate Territorial Defense Brigade liberated the village of Novodarivka from the Russian invaders.

Zaporizhzhia separate ground defense brigade reports about this on Facebook.

"On June 4, 2023, as part of a defense operation, the village of Novodarivka was liberated from the occupiers by joint actions of the mechanized unit and the consolidated unit of the Zaporizhia Separate Territorial Defense Brigade," the statement reads.

The brigade emphasized numerous attempts by the Russian forces to return the settlement under control, which lasted several days, were unsuccessful.

Background

On June 11, Valerii Shershen, the spokesperson for the Defense Forces, said the Russians blew up a dam, which led to flooding along the banks of the Mokri Yala River in the Novodarivka area of Ukraine's southeastern Zaporizhzhia region. At the same time, the spokesman said it does not affect the offensive operations.

As Cherevatii reported, in the direction of Bakhmut, the armed forces advanced on the flanks from 250 to 700 meters.
