Head of the Donetsk Regional Military Administration Pavlo Kyrylenko said that as a result of the hostilities, Bakhmut has been destroyed for more than 60%. The town lives under constant shelling.
He announced this on the air of the national telethon.
According to Pavlo Kyrylenko, our soldiers bravely defend the town and prevent the Russian invaders from advancing - the enemy has been pushed outside the town.
People are being killed in the town due to constant shelling.
“The enemy is pushed back to their previous positions, i.e. beyond the town limits... Our defenders bravely defend Bakhmut and prevent the enemy from advancing. But, unfortunately, the town itself suffers from this, which is more than 60% destroyed. Constant shelling continues. Yes, today as a result of artillery shelling in Bakhmut, two civilians - two women – were killed,” Pavlo Kyrylenko said.
It is worth noting that Bakhmut is one of the most complicated areas on the front.
