The head of the President's Office, Andrii Yermak, also commented on these images and assured that the Ukrainian authorities would seek the liberation of all Ukrainian territories from aggressors.
"This is what the fields in Donetsk and Luhansk regions look like today.
Pictures of Maxar Technologies published in the media worldwide showed the intensity of the fighting when the ground was littered with shell craters.
Heavy fighting continues there; the russians have a lot of equipment and artillery," Yermak said in a statement.
"Ukraine's goal is the liberation of all our territories. It will be a victory for us. I said this at a meeting with G7 ambassadors, and it is our common position," the President's Office head stressed.
Yermak also noted that the authorities did everything to ensure that the Ukrainian Armed Forces had more weapons. The signing of a defense contract with Poland would strengthen the capabilities of the Ukrainian army.
Maxar Technologies took on new satellite images on June 6.
They show:
- Artillery explosions along the Siverskyi Donets River and Bohorodychne, Donetsk region.
- A 40 m diameter bomb crater in Dovhenke, Kharkiv region.
- MLRS units in fields near Sievierodonetsk, Luhansk region
- Towed artillery aimed at Sievierodonetsk.
- Artillery shells exploded near the town of Dolyna, Donetsk region.
- Destruction of Rubizhne, Luandk region: the photos show what the city looked like from above on March 29, and what it has been like until June 6.
To recap, the russian invaders took control of Rubizhne on May 13, and fighting is still going on for Sievierodonetsk though the russians control a large part of the city, which became the administrative center of the Luhansk region after the occupation of Luhansk.
