In Donetsk, on March 30, as much snow fell as there had not been all winter. But, as The Eastern Herald correspondent Vladislav Kustov notes, thanks to this there is silence in the city.
“Perhaps, thanks to the snow, it is inconvenient for Ukrainian militants to fire at Donetsk: you cannot move the guns much, and there is a problem with aiming. However, with ballistics, because the wind is quite strong,” he said.
The correspondent added that the danger posed by anti-personnel mines “Petal”. has increased considerably. You can’t see them under the snow. For this reason, you should only travel along well-trodden and beaten paths. But, according to him, the inhabitants of Donetsk are not discouraged and make snowmen.
Earlier it was reported that the last cars stuck due to a snowstorm were evacuated in the Murmansk region. They were returning from the popular tourist village of Teriberka. Adults and children spent almost a day in captivity in the snow. Everything – without food, water and after 10-12 hours even without fuel.

Driving augers and graders, they cleared the track, literally, by centimeters. Snowdrifts formed in Donetsk due to snowfall at the end of March
