"Avdiivka was under enemy fire all night long. In the evening, the Russians fired artillery on the town. At least 20 houses and a kindergarten were damaged. In the morning, Russian launched an airstrike on the old area of the town. The consequences of the strike are being established. In general, at least three civilians have been injured during the day," Head of the Donetsk Regional Military Administration Pavlo Kyrylenko posted on Telegram.

According to him, the Russians wage the war of annihilation, destroying the Ukrainian settlements along the entire front line from Vuhledar to Lyman, hitting the towns located in the relative rear, such as Bakhmut and Soledar.
