The city continues to endure daily shelling.
Kramatorsk has been under intensified pressure from the Russian army for several months, which uses both aerial bombs and FPV drones against civilian facilities. Attacks are repeated from different directions — on residential neighborhoods, the private sector, transport, and infrastructure facilities, which considerably complicates the lives of residents and the work of rescue services.
Intelligence data indicate that the Kremlin views the capture of Kramatorsk as a strategic objective on the path to full occupation of Donetsk region. This explains why shelling of the city does not stop and why its intensity has recently increased.
Earlier, Informator reported that Kramatorsk endured five shellings in a day, resulting in the deaths of two men, another six residents were injured, and damage affected 11 high-rise buildings. We also wrote that the SBU uncovered an FSB spy network that coordinated shelling in the Kramatorsk direction — three suspects allegedly “passed” coordinates of the Defense Forces to the Russians, and two agents have already been detained.
