The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) claimed on May 8 that Russian forces seized Kyslivka (northwest of Svatove) after Russian milbloggers claimed that Russian forces had seized the settlement on May 7. A Russian milblogger claimed that Russian forces in Kyslivka are preparing for further attacks on Stepova Novoselivka and Ivanivka (both northwest of Svatove and immediately northwest of Kyslivka).
