Nothing confirmed, but officials for Ukraine have given limited information on towns, and usually wait a while to announce captured settlements. I don't think this town holds significant importance, except it is closer to Kherson proper, but progress is good to see. The two key towns I believe are Snihurivka west of the inhulets, and Davydiv Brid east of the inhulets. If Ukraine takes those, then it's game on.
I have seen plenty of speculation about Ukraine gaining this town or that, but nothing remotely solid. Sources like ISW that are firmly pro-Ukraine are not reporting Ukraine taking any new territory on that front.
Another online source, who generally is very pro-Ukraine as speculates favorably for that side, seems to indicate that Ukraine's progress on the Kherson front is minimial and could be reversed, and that Russia is now establishing more defensive lines on the Eastern front. The tweet below is part of a update thread that overall seems like fine for Ukraine but does not include any exciting new developments.
