The information was published on the brigade's Telegram channel.

‘Chasiv Yar. A terrifying tour of the destroyed town from the 24th Brigade - the center, the house of culture, the brick factory. ‘The Russian world is killing’. This is the inscription left on the wall of one of the buildings on Myru Street (Peace Street - ed.),’ the post reads.

The Russians continue to storm the town and wipe it out with all kinds of weapons — artillery, mines, rockets, 'kamikaze' drones and guided bombs. 

Some streets looked calm and alive just a month ago, but now they are nothing but ruins. There are still civilians in the town.

‘Here you will see a tour of the destroyed town, apartment buildings and abandoned houses from the inside, the cultural centre, the central part of Chasiv Yar and the territory of the brick factory. This video allows you to understand the conditions and ‘atmosphere’ in which the soldiers of the 24th Brigade are holding back the invasion of overwhelming enemy forces,’ the soldiers of the 24th Brigade say.
