Quote: "Evacuate faster: we are still sending out buses and humanitarian aid, and not long ago we even started sending out hearses too. The five evacuation routes remain as before: Severodonetsk, Lysychansk, Rubizhne, Popasna, Hirske."

Details: The regional head noted that on 28 April an attempt to reach Rubizhne failed again because it was "difficult and dangerous". It is also not always possible to break through to the towns of Popasna and Hirske. But the authorities will continue their efforts to send buses and  evacuate people from dangerous areas.
