Putin on Wednesday signed a law passed by Russia’s rubber stamp parliament to formally annex four regions of Ukraine following a “referendum” staged by Moscow in the region. These referendums were denounced by the international community as fake, and the United Nations Secretary General Ukraine, the United States, and many other countries dismissed the move as blatantly illegal land grabbing.

Despite the Kremlin’s claims to the territory, Ukraine has recently regained more and more territory in at least two regions Russia has declared control of.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declared four regions – Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhia and Kherson – that “they will be with Russia forever.”

Peskov said there was “absolutely no contradiction” in the Russian leader’s territorial claims, even as Russian forces were being pushed back from the front lines they had maintained for months in southern and eastern Ukraine.

Ukrainian forces have recaptured more villages south of Kherson on Wednesday and announced that the Ukrainian flag has flown over seven recently recaptured villages from Russian occupation, according to the Associated Press.

Meanwhile, there were multiple explosions on Wednesday in Vila Tserkva, a city 50 miles south of the capital Kyiv. A local Ukrainian official said the explosion appeared to have been caused by a suicide drone launched by the Russian military. Russia has reportedly been using such Iranian-made drones in recent weeks. Drones laden with explosives can dive in to hit their targets and remain airborne for long periods of time before detonating at the last moment.
