The head of the Luhansk OVA, Sergei Gaidai, said that in the case of Severodonetsk, the Russians carry out most of the strikes near bomb shelters. Over the past 24 hours, six people were killed there, eight more were injured, but the city continues to defend further, he wrote on his Telegram channel.

Gaidai added that recently it has been very difficult to get to the places of death, as the enemy is constantly shelling residential areas..

" Yes, they know that there are bomb shelters on the Severodonetsk Azot, and they send shells there. Yesterday they killed four local residents there, three more were hospitalized. Also, the enemy knows which schools have shelters - they also hit there for a reason. A woman was wounded near one of the educational institutions on May 24. The occupier collects this information using drones, and also receives data from gunners,” Gaidai wrote, urging citizens to be more careful now.. - Traitors may be among you. Allegedly hiding from shelling and receiving humanitarian aid along with everyone, but at the same time helping the enemy"

In the old districts of the city, there are also two dead and four injured - one woman had to amputate her leg..

" Two houses destroyed in Severodonetsk. Four each - in Novodruzhesk, Vrubovka and Kamyshevakh, three each - in gold and Toshkovka, two each - in Yekaterinovka and kidney, one - in Gorny,"

The attack on Severodonetsk now continues. But our defenders managed to repulse nine enemy attacks yesterday. They destroyed three tanks, eight artillery systems, eighteen armored vehicles, a special armored vehicle and one other vehicle.. Air defense units shot down one operational tactical unmanned aerial vehicle complex "
