This announcement comes two days after Russian separatists from the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic announced that they are in full control of the city. It is a rail transport centre located to the west of Severonetsk.
Ukraine announced yesterday that Russia controls most of the city of Lyman, but Ukrainian forces are blocking an advance by Russian soldiers towards Sloviansk, a city half an hour to the southwest.
Ukrainian and Russian forces have been fighting for control of Lyman for several days.
