Encirclement of the city was complete by March 4, 2022.  On March 6 units of the People's Militia of the Donetsk Republic (DPR) entered the city.  The main clashes were in the west of the city and in the east.  The Azov fighters and some Ukrainian regular army units took up firing positions in civilian homes and high rise apartment blocks.  Advancing Russian and Donetsk forces would take fire from the homes or apartments, identify its source, and aim tank fire or other means against the given window or floor or building.
