As for now IMpossible for non-locals due to the ever ongoing conflict there. This also means its NOT safe at all in western view and in fact your very own govmt may even have an official warning against travelling in those regions. If you ask this becse you took pity online on some nice lady from there-forget it, Luhansk is known since many yrs as the scam capital in that aspect. The only workable way to get out then is to reach some recognised Russky aerovoksal (=airport), fly to Mockba (or train it) and fly onward from there to the west (no flites to Kyiv though). But then again: If its a local she would know all that.
