Quote: "A 73-year-old woman was killed by a Russian shell in Avdiivka.
At around 16:00, the enemy shelled the city with artillery, hitting a residential area. A local resident was injured, and despite all their efforts, doctors were unable to save her."
More details: Filashkin had previously reported that the Russians shelled Orlivka with artillery just after midnight on the first night of 2024, and in the morning they shelled Ocheretyne. The shelling killed one person and injured another. At least three private houses were damaged by shells.
Later, Filashkin reported another death in Donetsk Oblast. The Russians shelled Pivdenne, in Toretsk hromada, with artillery and killed a 65-year-old man. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]
