Quote: "Donetsk and Luhansk regions are the hottest spots. It should be distinguished that in the Luhansk region the main city is Lysychansk, where the enemy is advancing, and in Donetsk region currently 45% [of the territory - ed.] has remained and will remain under [Ukrainian] control - we are sure that we will stop the enemy and in the future liberate our occupied territories.
This is almost half of the oblast, despite the fact that a third was occupied for eight years prior to the full-scale invasion.
The shelling in the Donetsk region is so devastating and so frequent, because of the large area and front line…"
"... Virtually all the populated areas of the region are being shelled. Constantly".
Details: Kyrylenko added that the city of Sloviansk has been under constant shelling for 5 days.
