Eastern Ukraine continues to see intense assaults from Russian forces, according to the Ukrainian military, but the British Defense Ministry has questioned whether Russia has made any significant advances in the last 72 hours.
Russian forces have attacked the west-central Ukrainian city of Vinnytsia, with at least 21 dead and 90 wounded, according to latest report from the emergency services on the scene.
At least six people were killed and five others injured by a Russian airstrike in Ukraine’s Donetsk region, officials said Sunday, adding that numerous people are still buried beneath the rubble of a building that collapsed in the barrage.
Five injured people and six bodies have been recovered from the rubble of a five-story building in the city of Chasiv Yar, according to local daily Ukrinform, citing a statement by Pavlo Kyrylenko, head of the Donetsk Regional Military Administration. He said the search for people trapped under the rubble is ongoing.
Russian shelling killed at least eight civilians in eastern Ukraine over the past 24 hours and wounded 25 more, Ukrainian officials said Wednesday. Pro-Russia separatists said attacks by Ukrainian forces killed four civilians.
The Ukrainian presidential office said Russian forces targeted cities and villages in the country’s southeast, with most civilian casualties occurring in Donetsk province, where Russia stepped up its offensive in recent days.
Fighting raged Saturday for Ukraine’s strategic Lysychansk, as Kyiv denied a claim by Moscow-backed separatists that they had encircled the eastern city.
Clashes have been intense in Lysychansk, the last major city in the Luhansk region of the Donbas still in Ukrainian hands, located across the river from neighbouring Severodonetsk seized by Russia last week.
