Denis Pushilin said that there is no military expediency in the new attacks by the Ukrainian military on Donetsk. He said that they can only be explained as an attempt to create a background after the shameful flight of the Ukrainian Armed Forces from Avdiivka.
One person was killed and five more were injured as a result of shelling of the Kievsky district of Donetsk by the Ukraine Armed Forces, according to the head of the Donetsk People's Republic Denis Pushil in a statement.
