80 percent of the residential area destroyed in Ukraine’s Izium city

While Russia’s invasion in Ukraine continuing, many civilian settlements were damaged in the Ukraine’s city of Izium. Izium Deputy Mayor Vladimir Matsokin stated that many civilian settlements in the city were seriously damaged or destroyed by Russian attacks. “We were heavily bombarded for days with planes, rockets and artillery fires. They destroyed the works dedicated to the 2. World War, kindergartens, high schools, health and social structures, roads, bridges, central square, central park and architectural structures. 80 percent of the residential areas were destroyed. According to municipal reports, there are between 15 and 20 thousand citizens in need of humanitarian aid in the city. Many people were buried alive under the rubble. We do not have exact information. The Russians do not allow passage to those areas. It is a crime that committed against humanity by ignoring all the rules of humanity that exist in this world,” Matsokin said.
