At the same time, Russian troops continue to strike settlements in the Donetsk region. In total, 44 shelling incidents were recorded in the region over the past day, resulting in fatalities, injuries, and damage to civilian infrastructure.

This was reported by Vadym Filashkin, head of the Donetsk Regional State Administration.

Earlier, Oleksandr Prokudin, head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration, urged residents of the region not to ignore danger warnings and to take steps to ensure their own safety in advance. According to him, in wartime, even the most advanced defenses cannot fully protect critical infrastructure from Russian strikes.

In nine settlements in the Zaporizhzhia District of the Zaporizhzhia Oblast, a decision was made to forcibly evacuate children. This decision applies to families remaining in dangerous areas.
