Verbatim: "Trostyanets remains the hottest spot for the third day in a row, fierce battles are going on."

"The orcs (russian aggressors -ed.) stationed their artillery in the Boromlyany community, and they shelled the Trostyanets community from that location."

"Last night (March 22 - ed.) massive fire broke out at one of the enterprises, which is still on fire today. Unfortunately, State Emergency Service officers and firefighters can’t get there to stop this fire due to the shelling and ongoing hostilities."
