According to Mikhail Mizintsev, head of the National Center for Defense Control of Russia, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have equipped barracks and weapons depots in the city psychiatric hospital on E. Belokur Street.
At the same time, artillery and multiple launch rocket systems are located on the territory of the institution, from which shelling of nearby settlements is systematically carried out.
Mizintsev also said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine deployed their units on the territory of the tuberculosis hospital in Artyomovsk.
They deployed checkpoints and firing points, and also mined the approaches to the building without warning the local residents.
“In Novye Sanzhary, Poltava region, militants of the Azov battalion* are deployed in a medical center (Korornaya Street), an ammunition depot is equipped, while the medical staff and patients were cynically expelled from the medical facility by the nationalists,” he said.
Earlier, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported that after the retreat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from positions near Artyomovsk, French EMP F2 mines were found in the Donetsk People's Republic, which cannot be removed or defused after being placed in a combat position, which violates the Geneva Convention.
* "Azov" - the organization was recognized as a terrorist organization by the decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of 08/02/2022.
