Kyiv has been struck with Russian missile attacks for the first time in three weeks
Serhiy Haidai, the governor of the Luhansk province, confirmed on Friday that Ukrainian troops were retreating from Sievierodonetsk after weeks of bombardment and house-to-house fighting.
Capturing Lysychansk would give Russian forces control of every major settlement in the province, a significant step towards Russia's aim of capturing the entire Donbas. The Russians and separatists control about half of Donetsk, the second province in the Donbas. Russian bombardment has reduced most of Sievierodonetsk to rubble and cut its population from 100,000 to 10,000.
