Ukraine Admits to its Attacks: Donbass Was Shot at Three Thousand Times in One Day

Now let's talk about Donbass, where fighting doesn't stop on the frontline. In one day the Ukrainian security forces fired at the DPR territory over three thousand times. Two civilians were killed and seven wounded. In Donetsk an ambulance came under fire. Both patients and doctors were injured. Ukrainian military unsuccessfully tried to attack the positions of the Republic near Avdeevka and Kominternovo six times. Our war correspondent Alexander Sladkov reports on what's happening now in the war zone. Donetsk People's Republic. An unfortunate record. In one day Ukrainian military violated the Minsk agreements 3016 times. Artillery was fired at preschools, hospitals, critical infrastructure. Today a driver of the Donetsk ambulance was wounded. When his colleagues were taking him to the hospital, the ambulance came under fire again. Two drivers and one doctor were injured. "We were coming back from the night shift. I heard a thump followed by severe pain. I woke up in the hospital. I don't remember anything. I’m in shock". The largest number of strikes were targeted at Makeyevka. Today a man was wounded and a woman died there. "An artillery barrage with a 122 mm missile was launched there. We found its debris. I want to note that artillery barrages are exact. There can’t be any errors. This is an obvious act of terror against the civilians of Donbas carried out by Ukrainian terrorists". Several shells fell on the territory of the "Deep Scheglovskaya" mine. Several miners were injured. "One man was brought here. He had an avulsed wound, there's the puddle of blood. The other man was wounded in the back at the entrance of the order building". Hot spots on the map of the Donetsk People's Republic are located in the South. It's the Azov region, coastal areas of Sokhanka, Kominternovo, Leninskoye, and Bezymyannoye. Ukrainian troops fired from the territory of the Shirokino village. The most complicated spot is the so-called industrial zone under Avdeevka, between Yasinovataya and the Donetsk airport. There are shootings and artillery duels. Today we received information that the OSCE monitoring mission patrol, is working on the territory of Avdeevka, controlled by the armed forces of Ukraine, and in Yasinovataya, where the defenders of the DPR are located. Alexander Hug patrolled the area, studied the situation. We even received information that his patrol came under fire. But the OSCE mission later did not confirm this information. Donetsk is experiencing difficulties with electricity and water. But now the utility providers are working, and just 30 minutes ago Alexander Zakharchenko confirmed that everything would be restored by midnight.
