KYIV — Russian forces now control “most” of eastern Ukraine’s Severodonetsk, the scene of fierce battles for days as the Russian army tries to seize it, the local governor says.
“Unfortunately, today, Russian troops control most of the city,” governor of the Luhansk region, Sergiy Gaiday, says in a video.
He says “90 percent” of the city is destroyed.
