Russia’s military has been ordered to pull out of the Ukrainian city of Kherson
This is the only capital it captured after invading back in February.
The withdrawal means Russian forces will pull out entirely from the western bank of the River Dnipro.
It is a significant blow as Russia faces a Ukrainian counter-offensive.
The military’s top brass announced the decision on Russian state TV, without President Putin.
This follows week long reports and rumours that Russia would leave Kherson.
The Ukrainian commander said they had good intelligence, and would only advance cautiously.
