Pro-Kremlin military bloggers have now posted several videos showing Russian soldiers with flags on rooftops of different buildings in Vuhledar .

Donetsk regional authorities confirmed that Russian troops had almost reached the city centre.

Military officials from the 72nd brigade and Ukraine ’s operational command in the area refused the BBC ’s request to comment. In their most recent daily briefings, the military’s General Staff kept silent about Vuhledar . Wednesday morning ’s briefing said merely that the “the enemy launched unsuccessful attacks on our positions in Bohoyavlenka ’s direction”, without mentioning the situation in Vuhledar at all..
