Ukrainian soldiers brace themselves in frontline trenches of Donetsk
UKRAINIAN servicemen patrolled trenches in the frontline Donetsk region Sunday (May 29), as they fight off Russian attempts to capture more land in the eastern part of Ukraine.

Dmytro, a former English teacher, said his biggest fear was being told to ''stop fighting“.

''A negotiated settlement can only happen on Ukrainian terms and at present if it happened it would be horror,” he said, adding that such a move could end President’s Zelenskiy’s career.

Video filmed by Reuters also showed damage to buildings in the town of Bakhmut. Russia had said it used missile strikes to destroy Ukrainian command posts in Bakhmut and Soledar. Both towns are on an important road running southwest from Lysychansk and Sievierodonetsk.
