In several towns in the region, such as Kramatorsk and Severodonetsk, Kremlin troops went on the attack, striking repeatedly. A garage was bombed in Lviv, near the Polish border, killing at least seven people.

With a serious face, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke on Monday evening April 18 on Telegram. He claims that Russian troops started the battle for Donbass. He adds that his soldiers will defend themselves until the end. In Severodonetsk, in the east of the country, Russia struck in the afternoon. Several dozen kilometers away, Kramatorsk was also bombed, like several other cities in Donbass.

At the other end of the country, near the Polish border, Lviv, had until then been rather spared. Residents film the strikes from their windows. Targets, military sites and a depot of foreign weapons according to Russia. But also a garage which adjoins the railway line. The building is on fire and the employees had just arrived at work. There are at least seven dead and dozens injured. In Mariupol, Ukrainian soldiers still hold several sectors of the city. Here again, a new Russian offensive could intervene in the coming days.
