Ukraine’s military says Russian forces are “very far” from seizing the eastern town of Bakhmut, after Russia’s Wagner mercenary group said Sunday it raised the Russian flag over the decimated city’s administration building. This followed a weekend of heavy fighting in Bakhmut and other parts of eastern Ukraine. In the nearby town of Kostyantynivka, at least six people were reported killed from Russian shelling. This is a 69-year-old survivor.

Anna: “Me and my neighbor ran out to the hallway, and we hugged each other very tightly. She’s bigger than me, and I hugged her very tight. And we stood there while everything was shaking because of the explosions. I have no idea how we have survived. There were six casualties. Six people just died.”
