In the Donbass, a few dozen kilometers from Bakhmut, the city of Siversk is regularly plagued by strikes by the Russian army. The destruction is numerous and the inhabitants spend a good part of their time in basements.
25 people, mostly elderly, live in the basement of the building, to protect themselves from strikes. The head of the city's military administration, Oleksii Vorobiev, says people should take shelter in safer places. Despite regular bombings, local authorities are considering bringing in specialists and dentists once a week to treat a population affected by the fighting.
