Slava Ukraini! Slava Skillt!
The humanitarian crisis in the eastern Ukrainian city of Slavyansk is worsening by day by day, amid disruption of water supplies and electricity, while emergency medical aid is unavailable due to gas shortages as fighting continues in some areas.
Early on Thursday morning, pro-Kiev troops targeted a church in the Donetsk Region city, killing one man and partly destroying the building.
“Artillery fire at the city started at about 6 am from Karachun Mountain [where the Ukrainian army’s artillery is deployed] and lasted for about a half-hour,” a local priest was cited a saying by RIA Novosti.
“The shells fell right next to it: one flew half a meter from the dome, the second exploded near the church, on the road; the third hit the central gas pipeline near the lake. The main gas pipeline has been blocked. The shells damaged the southern facade of the church, but in general it is intact.”
A man who served as a security guard at the church sustained severe head injuries and died of his wounds shortly afterward.
A shooting has been also reported in the town of Malinovka near Slavyansk.
Weeks of intense attacks by the Ukrainian army have left the city paralyzed.
Continued combat and army artillery fire have knocked out both water and electricity supplies.
“Almost all medical facilities are closed,” the Donetsk Region’s local administration said in a statement. “Ambulances do not respond to calls due to a lack of fuel.”
In addition, hospitals are not working in Donetsk, Kramatorsk, Slavyansk and a number of areas in the Slavyansk district.
Thousands of people have neither tap nor drinking water supplies as pumping stations were damaged in previous fighting between Ukrainian troops and anti-government self-defense forces.
“They've bombed everything,” a local woman told RT. “There's no electricity, no water, no money, no work, nothing. We don't know what to do. We're not leaving, we want to live on this land.”
“Please help us,” said another woman. “Something must be done, we're being killed in Slavyansk.”
