Quote from Haidai: "It has been almost a month since the enemy came almost to the border of our region, and to cross it, they are sacrificing all their reserves and burning villages in the Luhansk and Donetsk regions. The invaders don't need people – they need a referendum, no matter how many residents they kill and leave without a roof over their heads.

In the past 24 hours, four assaults by the Russians have been repelled, and fighting is still ongoing on a fifth front.

Dozens of settlements were shelled by multiple-launch rocket systems and tubed artillery. The enemy used air power in eight of these areas."

Details: Haidai notes: in order to gain a foothold in the Luhansk region, the Russians are brutally burning settlements that are not submitting.

The invaders leave only ashes from both large cities and very small settlements.
