Ukraine said Thursday that fighting in the eastern Donbas region of the country had reached its fiercest level yet, as Russian forces pushed deeper into the industrial region.

"The fighting has reached its maximum intensity," Ukraine's Deputy Defense Minister, Ganna Malyar, told a press briefing, warning that an "extremely difficult" and "long" period of combat lay ahead.
