According to Haidai: "Rubizhne and Popasna are Ukraine! We have NOT lost an inch of Ukrainian cities overnight.

The central part of Rubizhne is being cleared up.

The ‘Luhansk/Donetsk People's Republic’ Ruscists (Russian fascists) are mobilising, even their grandfathers are being forced into their ranks. They are running out of resources – it means that the orcs will soon run out of steam."

Details: According to Haidai, it was an extremely tense 24 hours in the Luhansk region. The occupants razed Rubizhne and Popasna to the ground. Two children aged around one and five years old and one woman were killed. Two others were injured, including one being a child.

The State Emergency Service has rescued and evacuated seven people caught in the shelling.

Shelling of the Luhansk region is ongoing.

During this time, three humanitarian corridors have evacuated 12,500 people from the Luhansk region.

According to Haidai: "We will try again in two days... In the meantime, get humanitarian aid to your humanitarian response HQ."
