"During the anti-terrorism operation by special forces, the town was freed," the ministry said in a statement posted on its website.
It said the operation took place on the outskirts of the town of Sviatogorsk and that no one was injured. There have been no previous reports of gunmen in the town, which lies just outside the stronghold of pro-Russian militants in Slaviansk.
