Ukraine claims that Putin’s army regained control of Snake Island after he abandoned it.

Captured by Russia on the first day of the invasion, Snake Island became world famous when the guards refused to call for surrender.

Footage shows a Ukrainian soldier on a loudspeaker telling a sailor on a Moscow ship to “have a good time”.

Despite their bravery, the invading forces quickly hijacked the island.

But last week, nearly five months later, Russia said it would leave the Black Sea island as a “gesture of good faith.”

The Pentagon says it wanted to show that Moscow did not interfere with UN efforts to export Ukrainian agricultural products.

However, defense experts suspect this is the reason, as Kremlin fighters have come under heavy attack in the region in recent weeks.

Since the occupation, the 100-hectare island is about 80 miles from Ukraine’s southern coast, making it a valuable strategic location for both sides.

As a result, Kieu intensified efforts to retake the land with air strikes.

In any case, the South Ukrainian Army Command now claims that the island is still in their hands.

“Military operations have ended and the territory (Zmiinyi Island) has returned to Ukrainian jurisdiction,” spokeswoman Natalia Humenuk said.

Russia’s blockade of Ukrainian ports now makes it almost impossible to export grain to other parts of the world.

Some people hope that the loss of Snake Island will make it easier to control the Russian coast and allow exports to resume.
