Bij de aanval van gisteravond werden twee inwoners van Avdiivka gedood. Tot grote woede van gouverneur Pavlo Zhebrivski van de provincie Donetsk was het een doelbewuste aanval van de rebellen op het stadscentrum. De granaten kwamen neer bij een stadion en een school die dient als coördinatiepunt voor humanitaire hulp.
Vanmorgen vroeg waren in totaal 200 inwoners van Avdiivka geëvacueerd, waaronder 95 kinderen. Er wordt nog altijd geschoten in de omgeving van de stad.
