Details: Fortunately, there were no casualties. 260 people were rescued from this town during the day. 

25 people were evacuated from Rubizhne, 73 from Sievierodonetsk, 58 from Kreminna, and 13 from Popasna.

Many more wanted to get out of Popasna. However, the bus could not return to take the others because Russian troops launched an airstrike over the town at that time. 

Quote: "There are currently 376 evacuated people on the train. The rest are already at several railway stations in the Donetsk region."

Background: On the morning of 30 March, Russian troops shelled Sievierodonetsk, Rubizhne, Popasna, Kreminna, and Lysychansk in the Luhansk region, with casualties in Lysychansk.
