“Despite the obstacles created by the Ukrainian authorities, without their participation over the past day, 23,761 people, including 3,964 children, were evacuated from dangerous regions of Ukraine and the Donbass republics to the territory of the Russian Federation, and a total of 2,691,833 people since the start of the special military operation, of which 426,686 are children,” Mizintsev said.

Earlier, the Ministry of Defense reported that militants of the Ukrainian armed formations mined the sides of an asphalt road near Krivoy Rog and did not notify local residents about this.
