There are 10 000 people left in the Pokrovsk community of the Donetsk region. At the same time, there are 7 000 in Pokrovsk itself, and all the children from the community have already been evacuated.
This was reported by the head of the Pokrovsk City Military Administration Serhiy Dobryak.
Recently, the evacuation has slowed down a lot, now no more than 5-6 people are leaving per day. There are no longer any evacuation points in Pokrovsk itself, so people are being picked up by address.
Dobryak urges locals not to delay and evacuate. There are no street battles in Pokrovsk, but the local administration and military are preparing for it. Then it will become even more difficult to evacuate.
- The Pokrovsk direction is one of the hottest on the front, with dozens of clashes taking place there every day. Pokrovsk is under constant shelling, the city is completely without electricity. Russian troops are stationed a few kilometers from the city.
- A mandatory evacuation has already been announced in the Donetsk region, and a forced one in frontline communities. Russian troops are constantly shelling the cities and villages of the region, causing injuries or deaths every day.
