During the day, 224 people were taken out of the front line, including 10 children, Vadym Filashkin, the head of the Donetsk regional military administration, said. At the same time, he noted that a large number of people still remain in Kurakhiv, Pokrovsk and communities. According to Filashkin, 17,000 people remain in the Pokrovsk community, including 246 children. In Pokrovsk – 11,000, of which 49 are children.
“As for Novokurahovo, 1,300 people remain in the community and about 800 people in the city itself. All the children were taken away“, he says.
All who remained had already made this decision. And that’s why they had to stock up on food, drinking water, medicines and hygiene products. After all, now it is almost impossible to get to the cities of Kurakhove, Toretsk and Chasiv Yar.
