Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Thursday confirmed that Russian forces currently occupy 20 percent of Ukraine.

乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基基周四证实,俄罗斯军队目前占据了乌克兰20%的领土。

In an area of more than 48,000 sq ft in eastern and southern Ukraine – roughly the size of North Carolina – Russian soldiers continue their brutal campaign.

在乌克兰东部和南部超过4.8万平方英尺的区域——大约相当于北卡罗来纳州的面积——俄罗斯士兵继续着他们残酷的战役。

Zelenskyy said that roughly 116,000 square miles are also "bestrewn with mines and unexploded ordnance."

泽连斯基说,大约11.6万平方英里也“布满了地雷和未爆弹药”。

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s "special military operation" began nearly 100 days ago and Kremlin officials have said they will seek to gain "full control" over eastern and southern Ukraine.

俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京的“特别军事行动”在近100天前开始,克里姆林宫官员表示,他们将寻求获得对乌克兰东部和南部的“完全控制”。

Intense fighting continues to rage in the Donbas where Russian forces have launched a ground offensive in the attempt to completely occupy Luhansk.

在顿巴斯,激烈的战斗仍在继续,俄罗斯军队发动了地面进攻,试图完全占领卢甘斯克。

Two cities stand in the way of total Russian control in the northeastern region, head of the separatist forces there told Russian media Thursday.

分离主义武装负责人星期四对俄罗斯媒体说,有两个城市阻碍了俄罗斯对东北地区的完全控制。

The cities of Sievierodonetsk and Lysychansk, located right next to one another but separated by the Siverskyi Donets River, are the final holdouts for Ukrainian resistance in the region.

北顿涅茨克和利西昌斯克两个城市紧挨着,但被北顿涅茨河隔开,是乌克兰抵抗势力在该地区的最后据点。

Head of the Russian-backed Luhansk People’s Republic, Leonid Pasechnik, said that occupying forces controlled roughly one-third of the city.

俄罗斯支持的卢甘斯克人民共和国领导人Leonid Pasechnik表示,占领军控制了该市大约三分之一的地区。

But the U.K.’s defense ministry on Thursday said Russian forces had gained control over "most" of Sievierodonetsk.

但是英国国防部星期四说,俄罗斯军队已经控制了北顿涅茨克的“大部分”地区。

"The Russian army has already destroyed almost the entire Donbas. Once one of the most powerful industrial centers in Europe is simply devastated," Zelenskyy said Thursday. "The occupiers are destroying it city after city."

“俄军几乎已经摧毁了整个顿巴斯。 曾经欧洲最强大的工业中心之一被彻底摧毁,”泽连斯基周四说。“占领者正在一个又一个城市摧毁它。”

Full occupation of the Luhansk region would allow Russian troops to not only push west into the Donetsk region but likely further into the war-torn nation.

全面占领卢甘斯克地区将使俄罗斯军队不仅向西推进进入顿涅茨克地区,而且可能进一步进入这个饱受战争蹂躏的国家。

Ukrainian officials have long warned that Russia may try to make another attempt for Kyiv in order to completely dominate the country.

乌克兰官员长期以来一直警告说,俄罗斯可能会试图在基辅进行另一次尝试,以完全控制乌克兰。

The Ukrainian president said Kyiv has recorded the loss of at least 14,000 people, but it is unclear if he was including Ukrainian troop casualities as well.

乌克兰总统说,基辅已经记录了至少1万4千人的伤亡,但还不清楚他是否包括乌克兰军队的伤亡。
