According to Kyiv Independent, “The claim was made by Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu. The Institute for the Study of War said that Ukrainian forces had likely deliberately withdrawn from Lysychansk, the last Ukrainian stronghold in Luhansk Oblast.”

It further reads, “This appears to be an effort to avoid encirclement of Ukrainian troops. Ukraine has not yet confirmed the loss of Lysychansk but Luhansk Oblast Governor Serhiy Haidai said that Russian troops had gained a foothold in Lysychansk and destroyed the city’s administrative buildings.”
