The humanitarian situation in Chernihiv in northern Ukraine is very difficult. For more than two weeks, residents have been living without water, electricity, gas and heating, Ukrinform reports citing the State Police of Ukraine.
“The humanitarian situation in Chernihiv remains extremely difficult. For more than two weeks, residents have been heroically defending themselves and living without water, electricity, heating and other essential communications,” the Telegram message says.
“On Thursday, the Russian invaders fired on civilians in the city of Nizhyn, Chernihiv region, and opened fire on the settlements of Nizhyn and Chernihiv regions. Information about possible victims is being checked,” they added.
The fighting continues
“Russia continues its strikes on Chernihiv and Kiev, despite the fact that it has announced the restriction of hostilities in these regions, Ukrainian forces are conducting successful, albeit limited, counterattacks near both cities,” the British defense establishment estimated on Friday morning. .
“Ukrainian forces have recaptured the villages of Sloboda and Lukasovka, south of Chernihiv, along one of the main supply routes between the city and Kiev. Ukraine is also continuing its successful, albeit limited, counterattacks east and northeast of Kyiv,” the daily intelligence update wrote.
“Both Chernihiv and Kyiv were subjected to continuous air and missile attacks, despite Russian assurances that there would be less activity in those areas,” he added.
