Russian killers are entrenched in the area of \u200b\u200bthe city of Lisichansk, said the head of the Luhansk OVA Serhiy Gaidai. He noted that now the city is on fire..

“The occupiers threw on Lisichansk, probably, all their forces. Attacked the city with incomprehensibly brutal tactics. So, if in Severodonetsk for a month of street fighting there were surviving houses and administrative buildings, then in Lisichansk for a short period of time the same administrative buildings were destroyed to the ground. There are many Russians and the weapons they use. And this, despite the destruction of several warehouses with enemy ammunition. Suffer significant losses, but stubbornly advance. They gain a foothold in the city, as well as in Verkhnekamenka, and continue to destroy settlements,” Gaidai said..

He also said that over the past day, rescuers extinguished the fire of high-rise buildings and private estates, a store, as well as another shopping center.. A woman was hospitalized in a hospital in the Dnepropetrovsk region.

“Also, Zolotarevka and Belogorovka suffered from shelling committed by the Russian army.. An enemy offensive was repelled near the latter,” Gaidai summed up..
