Russia has taken over about 55 percent of the region of
Donetsk with only 45 pe4cent still under the control of Ukrainian forces.
“It is very difficult to say the rest [of the
cities/territories in Donetsk] are controlled by the enemy, because these cities
are being destroyed by the enemy — they are just territories,” Pavlo Kyrylenko
said on Thursday, according to CNN.
Kyrylenko is the head of the Donetsk region military
administration.
Kyrylenko also spoke about a concentration of battalion
tactical groups in Sloviansk and Lyman.
Ukrainian forces have “serious battles ahead,” he said.
According to him, a continuation of shelling along the
Bakhmut-Lysychansk highway is underway by the Russian forces to “cut off”
Severodonetsk and Lysychansk from supplies.
