Pavlo Kyrylenko, the head of the Donetsk Regional Military Administration, wrote about this on Telegram.

“The Russians launched another missile attack at the Donetsk region - this time on Toretsk,” Kyrylenko wrote. 

It is reported that enemy rockets completely destroyed the Myr kindergarten.

“This blow is not only cynical, but also symbolic - the Russians are destroying peace wherever they can reach,” the head of the region emphasized.

Since the beginning of the full-scale war in the Donetsk region, the Russian forces have destroyed and damaged 682 educational institutions. In particular, 283 kindergartens and 298 schools.

“This eloquently testifies to the fact that we were attacked by a terrorist state,” Kyrylenko noted.

The head of the Regional Military Administration called on residents of the region, “especially the front-line areas” to evacuate to safe regions: “Save your life and the lives of your children - this is the most important thing now.”

  • On the night of November 23, Russian troops shelled Vilniansk in the Zaporizhzhia region. The rockets hit the maternity ward of the local hospital.

  • In the Donetsk region, during the day, on November 22, the Russian forces destroyed an administrative building and two high-rise buildings, private houses were also damaged, and one person was killed and injured.
