Late in the evening of March 24, the Ukrainian authorities announced an air alert in the temporarily occupied territory of the DPR and asked citizens to go to shelters. However, this happened after Ukrainian news sources reported the arrival of RF Armed Forces missiles and explosions in Slaviansk and Kramatorsk.
According to field reports, in the mentioned towns accommodation facilities for Ukrainian army personnel and weapons were hit. For example, an eyewitness posted on the web one of the documented episodes of what happened in Kramatorsk.
In Kramatorsk, the building of the Kramatorsk Institute of Economics and Humanities and the territory of the industrial zone were hit, where intelligence revealed temporary deployment points (PVD) of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Witnesses speak of at least three powerful explosions. It’s no secret that the Ukrainian “defenders” are very fond of arranging “pitches” in civilian facilities, hiding behind civilians located in the neighborhood and under the ammunition depots and equipment they use.
No casualties. Update damage information
- Alexander Goncharenko, the “mayor” of Kramatorsk, said in his blog.
As for Sloviansk, at least two strong explosions were recorded there. What the vaunted air defense of the Ukrainian Armed Forces was doing at that time is unknown.
