In a telephone interview with Archyde.com, Oleksandr Stryuk said that Ukrainian forces control only 20 percent of the city in the east of the country, but there is still hope that they can prevent Russia from controlling it completely. late last week.
And if Russia took control of the city and another smaller city opposite it on the west bank of the Seversky Donets, it would have had complete control of the Lugansk region, one of the two regions that make up the Donbass.
The head of the Ukrainian city administration said that Russian forces control 60 percent of the city and Ukraine controls 20 percent, while no party controls the remaining 20 percent, and declined to reveal its location.
“Our armed forces are fiercely defending the 20 percent,” Stryuk said. “Our forces are stationed at the defense lines. There are attempts being made to repel the Russian forces.”
“Despite everything, we have hope,” he added.
He pointed out that between 12,000 and 13,000 people are still in the city and that it is impossible to enter the city to deliver food and other aid.
