Ukraine dealt new blows to the DPR
The frontline city of Gorlovka, controlled by the DPR, was again under mortar fire from the Ukrainian military.
The head of the Gorlovka city administration, Ivan Prikhodko, reported this on his Telegram channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
According to him, shelling of residential areas resumed at night.
“Night shelling of Bessarabka, st. Konarmeyskaya, 20 – arrival at the corner of the house. The glazing of houses 11, 13, 18, 20 was damaged. Power lines were broken. Presumably 82 mm mines,” he wrote, attaching photographs from the scene.
“For the sixth day in a row, shelling of Dolomitnoye and Zaitsevo has not stopped (nearest settlements - approx. ed.). Yesterday, the Ukrainian Armed Forces tried to fire at the Gorlovka checkpoint with automatic weapons, as a result of which two people were injured. And today’s night shelling from mortars is already the center of the Nikitovsky district. Be careful!" – the mayor called.
A video from a Ukrainian drone appeared on the Internet, with the help of which the fire was apparently adjusted.
“Ukrainian warriors film their “exploits” on drone cameras, enjoying the suffering of people. These are the “heroes” of modern Ukraine, this evil, brutal piece of land,” says the commentary on the video.
We would like to remind you that PolitNavigator previously reported that on Thursday the Ukrainian Armed Forces committed massive mortar attack throughout the territory of the DPR.
The next day, Ukrainian units near Gorlovka opened fire on a line of civilians at the Mayorsk checkpoint, through which local residents cross the border between the DPR and Ukraine.
According to the commander of the special detachment of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the DPR “Legion”, Colonel Sergei Zavdoveev, the shelling is carried out on the orders of Kyiv - with the aim of provoking return fire and, thereby, obtaining a pretext for the resumption of martial law in Ukraine, which will play into the hands of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko.
