'We were surrounded by Russian troops - but escaped'
Russian troops are continuing to push into eastern Ukraine as they try to seize the entire Donetsk region.

A group of Ukrainian soldiers who found themselves in this dangerous position told the BBC's Abdujalil Abdurasulov how they escaped from a Russian trap in the village of Komyshivka in eastern Ukraine.
