Fighting raged in two key eastern Ukrainian cities on the 100th day of Russia's war, with both Moscow and Kiev claiming progress on the battlefront. 

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Friday that Russian troops have succeeded in their main stated task of "protecting civilians" in the separatist-controlled areas in eastern Ukraine. 

He added that Russian forces have "liberated" parts of Ukraine and that "this work will continue until all the goals of the special military operation are achieved." 

Russian forces have been trying to encircle the cities of Sievierodonetsk and Lysychansk in Ukraine's eastern Luhansk province. 

The Ukrainian head of the Luhansk region, Serhiy Gaidai, told national television Friday that Ukraine had recaptured a large piece of territory in Sievierodonetsk. He said Ukrainian troops had retaken about 20% of the ground they had previously lost to the Russians.
