Following a day of conflicting claims and counter-claims over whether the strategically important southern Ukrainian city of Kherson was in Russia's hands, the AFP is reporting just after 4am Kiev time that "Ukrainian officials confirm Russia's capture of southern city Kherson."
Kiev over the past hours had disputed Russian reports that Kherson had been fully captured by the invading forces. According to a breaking Newsweek report:
Kherson, a key strategic point along the Black Sea, has been captured by Russia, making it the first major Ukrainian city to fall to invading Russian forces.
