Ukraine acknowledges that hostilities in the east have reached "their maximum intensity"

MADRID, 30 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Ukrainian Defense Ministry acknowledged on Monday that the hostilities in the east of the country, where the Russian offensive has intensified in recent weeks, have reached their "maximum intensity".

"Russian troops are firing along the entire line of contact and trying to fire artillery fire at our defenses," defense ministry spokesman Oleksander Motuzianik told the Ukrinform agency.

The official has pointed out that now the "fierce" battles are taking place in the directions of Severodonetsk, Bakhmut and Kurajiv. In fact, regarding the first location, Motuzianik has detailed that the situation is "difficult" since the fighting is already taking place in the streets near the city.

The defense spokesman stressed that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are taking all measures to prevent Russian troops from carrying out their intentions to surround the Ukrainian soldiers around the Severodonetsk and Lisichansk districts.
