KYIV—Russian forces swarmed into the eastern Ukrainian city of Sievierodonetsk, a Ukrainian official said on Monday.

Pro-Moscow separatists claimed the last bridge out of Sievierodonetsk had been destroyed and Ukrainian defenders there must now surrender or die. Ukraine said there was still another way out although it was severely damaged.
