From the front-line settlements of the Lugansk region, due to constant enemy artillery shelling and air strikes, official evacuation has not been carried out for the third day.
The Lisichansk-Bakhmut highway, on which one could move relatively calmly a week ago, has now become very dangerous for movement. At the same time, Bakhmut, in the Donetsk region, where people were taken out in the first place every day, is increasingly being attacked by rashists, mainly from the air with cruise missiles, according to TSN .
A deadly chimney thrown onto the roof of a local store before dawn. In general, over the past week, about a dozen Russian, one, cruise missiles have flown into Bakhmut. The echo of explosions of heavy artillery shells, as well as rocket-propelled Grads, Tornadoes and Hurricanes, now sounds in the city many times a day.
Cruise missiles, predominantly of the air-to-ground class, are dropped by bombers many tens or even hundreds of kilometers away from targets. Ground hostile artillery pours clearly from the East – from the occupied regions of the neighboring Luhansk region. “The track is under shelling, since about the day before yesterday. Shelling began directly at our checkpoint, and near the checkpoint it began to lie down,” the fighters say.
The highway Bakhmut – Lisichansk, until recently, is absolutely safe and travel. But then there was an arrival that wounded a policeman. Currently, the movement of this road in both directions, especially the territory of the Lugansk region, is turning into a deadly journey.
Along the road, up to Lisichansk itself, wheels torn by splinters and vehicles beaten by mines and shells are lying around. The green fields on both sides of the road are littered with shell craters. The Lisichansk refinery smokes for days in a row due to arrivals.
It flares up, almost after every second hit of sieve shells – in different parts and Lisichansk itself. Now there are no civilian cars here, and there are almost no civilians now. The rest mainly hide in cellars and cellars.
Grandfather Fyodor, who is almost 90, is convinced that the Resolists deliberately cook in the residential areas of his hometown in order to intimidate people. He was the only resident on his street. Due to constant shelling, the official evacuation from the Lugansk region has been suspended for the third day.
