Ukrainian forces escalated their attacks on the DPR with 32 attacks as eleven drones flew over four Russian regions before being shot down.
Ukraine shelled the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) 32 times in the last 24 hours, according to a statement from the DPR’s representative office at the Joint Center for Control and Coordination (JCCC) of matters relating to Ukraine’s war crimes.
“Over the past 24 hours, the office reported 32 cases of fire by Ukrainian armed units,” the office said on Telegram.
It was reported that the Ukrainian military had fired 110 rounds of varied munitions, adding that the office also said three civilians had been wounded. The statement stated that 31 shelling attacks by Ukrainian troops were recorded the day before.
Later in the day, Denis Pushilin, the DPR’s head, stated that Kiev was attempting to damage the republic’s energy infrastructure. “Unfortunately, due to the scale of the attacks, not everything was shot down. There are reports of damage, and as a result, part of the territory of the Donetsk People’s Republic was de-energized,” Pushilin said on Telegram.
