Оперативна інформація з регіонів мережі Активної Громади 20.04.2022р.
Найстаріший будинок культури Маріуполя – 120 років. Приймав бої у Першу та Другу світову війну. В 1943 зруйнований, а в 1946 відбудований. У цій кривавій війні ЦСМ “Готель Континенталь” став притулком для сотень людей. Зруйнований знову рашистами.
ГУР перехопило розмову військових рф «Пленных в Попасной приказано убить»
Головне управління розвідки МО України отримало аудіоперехоплення розмови окупантів, в якому йде мова про наказ вбити усіх військовополонених ЗСУ в районі Попасної (Луганська обл.). Це є відвертим воєнним злочином, порушенням міжнародного законодавства та ще одним яскравим прикладом, що армія расії – це вбивці, гвалтівники та мародери й ніяким чином не військові. У черговий раз попереджаємо, що воєнні злочини не мають терміну давності та гарантуємо, що усі воєнні злочинці будуть справедливо покарані !
Окупаційна армія держави-терориста Росії намагається продовжувати наступ у Східній операційній зоні, щоб встановити повний контроль над територією Донецької і Луганської областей. Про це повідомляє Генштаб Збройних Сил України
Обласний центр Сєвєродонецьк після 56 днів війни. Таким місто побачили журналісти Радіо Свобода
У Попасній та Рубіжному світло, газ та водопостачання вже не відновити до кінця війни. Водопостачання відсутнє в Рубіжному, Попасній, частково в Сєвєродонецьку та Лисичанську.
Як повідомляється, невідомі зірвали прапор Європейського Союзу, потрощили панелі із фотографіями Небесної сотні та загиблих у російсько-українській війні.
