Quote: "We rescued more than 500 people, everyone who came to a gathering place. These people are exhausted from war but they survived. I hope in a day or two they will feel once again what a peaceful life is.
More than 500 citizens of the Luhansk region, many of them children, were forced to leave their native cities because Russia took almost everything they had. However, they will spend 30 hours on trains going to a safe place. Today we have rescued everyone who came to the gathering place."
Details: According to Haidai, 223 people were evacuated from Sievierodonetsk, 230 people from Lysychansk, and 17 people from Popasna.
At first, 30 people were evacuated from Rubizhne. Later, 10 people who were able to get out of the town were also evacuated. 20 people left Rubizhne in their vehicles.
