The Petrovsky district, the Shirokiy microdistrict, the Kuibyshevsky district, including the territory of the railway station, the Kyiv district, and the Peski microdistrict were subjected to massive shelling.
Not a single defensive facility of the militia was damaged, but the shells destroyed several private buildings, several commercial facilities and infrastructure structures.
There are dead, there are numerous wounded: all of them are civilians. All of the listed areas are densely populated residential areas, built up mainly with multi-storey buildings, with a large number of schools, kindergartens, and children's play areas. During the daytime, there are usually a lot of children on the streets of these areas. The Ukrainian military cannot but know about this, but, nevertheless, criminal orders for barbaric shelling are given.
The shells also hit the territory of the Mayak market, which is one and a half kilometers from the railway station.
Usually this market is crowded with people on Sundays. According to rough estimates, there are at least 700 market employees alone, including sellers and auxiliary workers, and all of them are located in a fairly limited area.
According to the agency, shelling is carried out from the territory of Avdeevka and from the Marinka area. According to local residents, the Ukrainian army installed GRAD systems and long-range artillery in the center of Avdiivka, near the school and central hospital. Donetsk is being shelled from there.
Now in the capital of Donbass, rescuers and fire crews are actively working, who are still fighting numerous fires that arose after the shelling.
