He said that the occupiers improve their tactical position for the attack on the Donetsk region by destroying several streets at once.
“It has been almost a month since the enemy came almost to the border of our region, and to cross it, they are sacrificing all their reserves and burning villages in the Luhansk and Donetsk regions. The invaders don’t need people – they need a referendum, no matter how many residents they kill and leave without a roof over their heads. In the past 24 hours, four assaults by the Russians have been repelled, and the fighting is still ongoing on a fifth front.
Dozens of the settlements were shelled by multiple-launch rocket systems and tubed artillery. The enemy used air power in eight of these areas.”
The whole country saw that the occupiers left only ashes from both large cities and very small settlements.
