Pavlo Kyrylenko, the head of the Donetsk regional military administration, informed about this on Telegram.

On August 25, it was "hot" in the communities of Bakhmut and Kramatorsk districts.

"In the Soledar community, Soledar, Yakovlivka, Bakhmutske, Minkivka and Vasyukivka came under fire.

The night passed loudly in the Svitlodar community: Odradivka, Bakhmutka, Zhovanka, Kodem, Mykolaivka, Pisky and Mayorsk were under fire," the message reads.

In Siversk, 4 houses were damaged as a result of hits from Russian shells.

The Russian army raided the Kramatorsk district at least twice, hitting educational institutions: the Chemical and Mechanical Technical College in Slovyansk and a school in Mykolaivka. Also, 5 residential buildings were damaged there.

A fire broke out in Kostyantynivska hromada as a result of shelling of rice fields - 30 hectares of stubble and 0.3 hectares of forest strip burned.

"On August 25, the Russians killed 2 civilians of Donetsk region: in Siversk and Zelenopilly. Another 6 people were injured," the report says.

It is known that it is currently impossible to establish accurate data on the number of dead or injured in the temporarily occupied Mariupol and Volnovakha.

"Russia is killing civilians! Every crime will be punished," added the head of Donetsk region.
