Pokrovsk shelling
Pokrovsk, located in the Donetsk region, is a city situated in what is commonly referred to as the "rear area." However, the occupiers continue to launch attacks even in this relatively safer region.
For example, Russian forces launched a missile strike on Pokrovsk in the Donetsk region on June 21. As a result of the shelling, four people sustained injuries. On August 7, the occupiers targeted a residential building in Pokrovsk, with casualties reported as a result of the enemy's attack.
