Fighting for control of the Donbas region continues to devastate eastern Ukraine, with Russian forces pressing into Severodonetsk, the largest city still held by Ukrainian forces. The nearby city of Lysychansk is under constant bombardment. FRANCE 24's Jonathan Walsh and Amar Al-Hameedawi filed this report from Lysychansk, where they spoke with some of the few residents who have chosen not to leave.
"Tonight, I'm going to sleep in my basement," says Lysychansk resident Yelyzabeta."I'm scared. My neighbourhood hasn't been bombed too much, but here in the city centre, it's much worse."
