Members of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic (DPR/DNR) continued to evacuate residents from Uglegorsk on Saturday, although some residents refuse to leave their homes.

According to a member of the 'Sparta' battalion, a humanitarian corridor through the city is being exploited by 'subversive' groups loyal to Kiev. Reports on the ground indicate pro-Kiev snipers are also present in the area.

The DNR/DPR reportedly took 'full control' of the city on Wednesday following heavy fighting with pro-Kiev forces.
