RUSSIAN forces continued to pound towns and villages in the east of Ukraine on Tuesday (April 12).
Barvinkove, a small town in Kharkiv region, just a few miles from administrative borders of Donetsk and Luhansk has been under shelling for weeks but there are fears the worst is yet to come.
Ukrainian officials say Russian forces have been regrouping for a new offensive, and that Moscow plans to seize as much territory as it can in the eastern part of Ukraine known as Donbas bordering Russia.
"We can see hardware coming, we can hear the sound of it driving. There was incoming fire recently, which lasted for 15-20 minutes. Now it is quiet. When it is quiet for a long time, it gets suspicious,” Leonid Serduchenko, Ukrainian army commander in Barvinkove said.
