The head of Russia's Wagner private military company on Monday claimed the capture of the east Ukraine town of Bakhmut "in a legal sense", saying the city administration building was under Russian control, reports AFP.

"In a legal sense, Bakhmut has been captured. The enemy is concentrated in western areas," Yevgeny Prigozhin said on his Telegram channel.
