Donetsk region: under bursts of shells on armored vehicles: how police rescue residents of Svyatogorsk and Raihorodsk
The evacuation takes place in difficult conditions, because the front line changes every minute, and the road is being shot by the Russians. Police managed to remove about half a hundred people, including wounded adults and children. There are two fragments in the body of a three-year-old boy from the village of Studenok, and his father killed him in front of his eyes with a Russian shell.
The occupiers continue their offensive in the north of Donetsk region, destroying everything in their path. Children's cars and a cassette shell remained at the collection point in Svyatogorsk, from where the evacuation took place.
Police officers took 11 residents of the village Studenok, who were brought to the city by the Ukrainian military. Half of the survivors are children. One of the boys needed medical attention — he was wounded in the abdomen and leg.
“Yesterday I killed a man and wounded a child,” the woman said. “When the shelling started, we ran to the cellar, but a rocket just hit my face.”
Neighbors tried to extinguish the burning house, but the enemy did not let the flames be extinguished by constant shelling. According to residents, now there are units left in the village. In Svyatogorsk itself there are about 800 inhabitants.
About 40 more people were evacuated from the town of Raigorodok, which is also under enemy fire. Citizens were taken from the agreed collection points, and for the disabled they drove to the addresses. After all, law enforcement is working to save everyone.
As quickly as possible, on armored vehicles — this is how the evacuation took place, as Russian troops shelled the places of movement of the evacuation groups.
Special agents and local police officers who navigate the area helped to safely take people out. Temporary housing, food, medical care are organized for the evacuated.
To those who remain, the police delivered bread, food, baby food, diapers. Law enforcement officers went around the streets and made a list of citizens' needs — all this they will try to deliver in the near future.
