(ANSA) Moscow, June 13 - Ukraine said Friday its troops
re-captured the port city of Mariupol as Moscow claimed Kiev's
forces had violated Russia's frontier.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko claimed the victory
over Russian-backed rebels in the strategic city and said he has
asked the governor of Donetsk to move his regional government
temporarily to Mariupol.
The Itar-Tass news agency reported the FSB Russian secret
service saying that two Ukrainian army "military vehicles" had
crossed the Russian frontier.
Russian President Vladimir Putin asked the foreign
ministry to demand an explanation from Kiev for the alleged
violation of the Russian frontier in the Rostov region of the
Don, Tass said.
