Details: The occupiers shelled the Myrove and Pokrov hromadas [a hromada - an administrative unit designating a town, village or several villages and their adjacent territories - ed.] with Grad multiple-rocket launchers and heavy artillery.
Preliminary information indicates that there were no casualties.
At the same time, an agricultural business and power lines were damaged.
Almost 1,000 families have been left without electricity in the village of Vyshchetarasivka. There is no mobile connection because of a damaged tower.
"Emergency crews will start working as soon as the threat of shelling is over," Reznichenko stated.
Soldiers from Air Command Skhid (East) shot down one Russian Shahed-136 kamikaze drone at midnight.
