The White House says it’s “working very hard to learn more” about two US citizens who are missing in Ukraine.
Alexander Drueke, 39, and Andy Huynh, 27, both from Alabama, are feared by their families to have been captured after reportedly volunteering to fight as part of a Ukrainian army unit.
Reuters reports the pair are thought to have been involved in an operation around the Kharkiv region, but did not return. They are said to have been out of contact with their relatives since 8 June.
US officials say there is no confirmation that the two men have been captured by Russian forces.
During questioning over the reports on Wednesday, a National Security Council spokesman advised Americans against travelling to Ukraine – urging them to find other ways to support the country.

Russia’s foreign minister has again defended Moscow’s actions in neighbouring Ukraine, during an exclusive interview with the BBC.
“Russia is not squeaky clean,” Sergei Lavrov admits in answer to a question from Steve Rosenberg. “Russia is what it is. And we are not ashamed of showing who we are.”
The minister claimed the United Nations is “being used to amplify fake news from the West,” after being read quotes from a UN report detailing alleged Russian war crimes.
Of the invasion itself, Lavrov says: “We had absolutely no other way of explaining to the West that dragging Ukraine into Nato was a criminal act.”
Russia has opposed the eastward expansion of Nato, a 30-member military alliance of Western nations.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has dared the UK government to try to “defeat” Russia over its actions in Ukraine.
In an exclusive interview with the BBC’s Russia Editor, Steve Rosenberg, he says he doesn’t think there’s “room for manoeuvre anymore” in terms of relations between Russia and the UK.
“Both [UK PM Boris] Johnson and [Foreign Secretary Liz] Truss say openly that we should defeat Russia, we should force Russia to its knees,” says Lavrov.
“Go on then, do it!” he adds.
Lavrov goes on to accuse the UK of “once again sacrificing the interests of its people for the sake of political ambitions.”
He continues: “Their politicians think only about the next election and nothing else.”
Like other Western nations, the UK has provided Ukraine with weapons to fight Russian invaders – and has also targeted Moscow with sanctions.
