A family with two daughters, aged 7 and 9, is now safe. The evacuation was facilitated by fog, which hampered the work of enemy drones.
Druzhkivka suffers from daily shelling with bombs and strike drones, with Russia attacking houses, civilian cars, and police crews. It is only possible to enter the city in armored vehicles equipped with anti-drone equipment.
This was reported by the Donetsk Regional Police.
"They bomb us every day, even in this weather, maybe a little less," says the woman.
The mother and both children are upset that they have to leave their home. Only when the White Angels gave them soft toys did the girls begin to smile a little.
The rescued family was handed over to volunteers, who took them to a safer region.
"Children have no place in a war zone. We all lose something. It is better to lose a home than children's lives," says Sergey Narykov, senior inspector for special assignments in the evacuation department of the Main Directorate of the National Police in Donetsk Oblast.
About 19,500 residents remain in Druzhkivka. People are leaving slowly, but the evacuation continues.
