Russia is carrying out a major offensive on the last Ukrainian stronghold in the eastern Luhansk area. The local governor said Russian troops are "pouring fire" on the city of Lysychansk from the ground and air.
俄罗斯正对东部卢甘斯克地区最后一个乌克兰据点展开重大攻势。该州州长表示，俄罗斯军队正从地面和空中向利西昌斯克市“倾泻火力”。
Luhansk Governor Serhiy Haidai said Russian forces were attacking Lysychansk after recently capturing the neighboring city of Sievierodonetsk. The Russian offensive aims to capture the larger Donbas area from Ukrainian government control.
卢甘斯克州州长谢尔盖·盖达伊表示，俄罗斯军队近期在占领邻市西维耶罗顿涅茨克后，开始进攻利西昌斯克市。俄罗斯的进攻旨在从乌克兰政府控制下夺取更大的顿巴斯地区。
Western experts say capturing the Donbas has become the new main goal of Russian President Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine. The war has now lasted five months.
西方专家表示，占领顿巴斯地区已经成为俄罗斯总统普京在乌克兰战争中的新目标。这场战争现在已经持续了5个月。
"After the takeover of Sievierodonetsk, the enemy army has concentrated all its forces on capturing (our) last stronghold in the Luhansk region: Lysychansk," Haidai told The Associated Press.
盖达伊对美联社表示：“在占领西维耶顿涅茨克后，敌军已经集中全部兵力进攻我方在卢甘斯克地区的最后一个据点：利西昌斯克市。”
Over the past week, the Russian army has captured several villages and towns southeast of Lysychansk. It is launching air strikes and artillery fire from those towns.
过去一周，俄罗斯军队占领了利西昌斯克市东南部的数个村镇。它开始从这些城镇发动空袭和炮击。
The office of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said at least six civilians were killed and 31 others injured during Russian attacks on several cities in the past day. Kyiv and some cities in the south and east also came under attack.
泽连斯基总统办公室表示，在过去一天俄罗斯对数个城市的袭击中，至少有 6 名平民丧生，31 人受伤。基辅以及南部和东部的一些城市也遭到袭击。
Russian forces continued to target the southern port of Odesa. A missile attack there destroyed apartment buildings and injured six people.
俄军继续打击敖德萨南部港口。一枚袭击该地的导弹摧毁了公寓楼，造成6人受伤。
In Lysychansk, at least five buildings in the city and the last road bridge were damaged over the past day, Haidai said. An important highway connecting the city to government-held territory further south could not be used because of shelling. But the highway has not been captured yet, he said.
盖达伊表示，利西昌斯克市至少有5栋建筑和最后一座公路桥梁在昨天遭到破坏。由于炮击，一条连接该市与南部政府控制领土的重要高速公路无法使用。但他表示，这条高速公路尚未被占领。
The fighting is also making the evacuation of civilians more difficult, Haidai said. The city had a pre-war population of around 100,000, about half of whom remain.
盖达伊表示，战斗也让撤离平民变得更加困难。这座城市战前大约有10万人口，其中近一半仍留在原地。
Lysychansk is on the Siverskiy Donets River and is a large area covered with hills. This gives an advantage to Ukrainian troops, military experts say.
利西昌斯克市位于西维尔斯基顿涅茨河上，是一大片被丘陵覆盖的地区。军事专家表示，这给乌克兰军队带来了优势。
The Siverskiy Donets River borders Lysychansk on the north and east. The Ukrainian army continues to hold territory west of the city which it uses to supply arms and humanitarian aid. Russian forces have now moved to block Lysychansk from the south.
西维尔斯基顿涅茨河在北部和东部与利西昌斯克市接壤。乌克兰军队继续控制着该市以西领土，这里用于供应武器和人道主义援助。俄罗斯军队现在已经从南部封锁了利西昌斯克市。
To the west, in the government-controlled city of Sloviansk, local officials accused Russian forces of using a cluster bomb Monday. They said it hit a civilian neighborhood. A cluster bomb is a kind of explosive that contains many smaller bombs and is considered very deadly.
在西部由乌克兰政府控制的斯洛文斯克市，当地官员指责俄罗斯军队周一使用了集束炸弹。他们称炸弹击中了一处平民社区。集束炸弹是一种包含许多较小炸弹的爆炸物，被认为是非常致命的。
Officials say the number of dead and injured has not yet been confirmed.
有关官员表示，死伤人数尚未得到证实。
The shockwave from a big explosion Monday in Sloviansk destroyed most of the windows in the surrounding apartment buildings and nearby cars.
周一在斯洛文斯克市发生大爆炸产生的冲击波摧毁了周围公寓楼和附近汽车的大部分窗户。
Monday, a Russian missile struck a crowded shopping center in Ukraine's central city of Kremenchuk, officials said. Dozens of civilians were feared killed or wounded. Officials said there were more than 1,000 civilians inside the shopping center at the time of the attack.

Meanwhile, leaders of the Group of Seven countries meeting in Germany appeared willing to provide Ukraine with air defense systems. Russia hit Kyiv with long-distance missiles on Sunday. The U.S. appeared ready to announce the purchase of a surface-to-air missile system for Ukraine.
