Russia launched the second phase of the war with the attack on Donbas and Kreminna was the first city to fall into the hands of the invaders.
Kremina a city in the Luhansk region with a population of 18 thousand inhabitants is located 574 km south link of Kiev. ‘Kreminna is now under Russian control, they have entered the city,’ said Serhiy Gaidai, Luhansk governor quoted by Reuters.
Our forces should have withdrawn, but have already been repositioned elsewhere and are continuing the battle with the invaders he said. While Pavlo Kyrylenko, the head of Donetsk said that Russian forces are changing tactics, although the city of Mariupol continues to be under their control.
The attack on the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol, where the troops of the Azov Brigade and those remaining from the 36th Battalion of the Ukrainian Marines are stationed, has started in Mariupol. Aerial footage shows fierce fighting in the area. However, entire families with children have found shelter in the tunnels of the giant factory. Tunnels that have a labyrinth system are said to have maximum security, designed to withstand a nuclear attack. They have been built since World War II. Local authorities say at least 1,000 people are trapped in the compound.
With the capture of Kremina, the Russians are now seeking to advance towards Kramatorsk and Sloviansk located in the north of the Donetsk region, Kirilenko further said. Moscow appears to be seeking to strike several parts of the country at once: rockets in Lviv, explosions in Mykolaiv and Kharkiv. In the latter the mayor says that civilian infrastructure is being bombed incessantly.
After withdrawing from the capital, Kiev, Russia began regrouping and reinforcing its troops on the ground, concentrating its efforts on a major offensive to the east.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said this second phase of the war is a very important moment for them, while denying President Zelensky’s warnings that Russia could use nuclear weapons.
