Avdiivka Coking Plant Halted
The Avdiivka Coking Plant has been halted as a result of massive artillery shelling. According to witnesses, the plant's territory was shelled by 122mm weapons at least 50 times yesterday. A gas pipeline was set on fire.
Fires were visible within a 30-kilometre radius of Avdiivka.
"Новый вид вымогательства от террористов ДНР. (A new form of extortion by DNR terrorists.)
Два дня боевики убивали Авдеевку. Именно уничтожали. Постоянной связи с городом нет. (For two days, the militants have been killing Avdiivka. Destroying it, precisely. There is no constant communication with the city.)
Единственное градообразующее предприятие, а сейчас и единственный помощник в восстановлении и поддержании жизни в городе - Авдеевский коксохим остановился. (The only city-forming enterprise, and now the only helper in the restoration and maintenance of life in the city – the Avdiivka Coking Plant – has stopped.)
Более 70 снарядов за два дня на территорию завода. Город без электричества и водоснабжения. Один молодой мужчина убит, две женщины тяжело ранены. Возле завода нет воинских частей, в обратном случае, если бы они были, можно было понять массированный обстрел именно этой территории. (More than 70 shells hit the plant's territory in two days. The city is without electricity and water supply. One young man has been killed, two women are seriously wounded. There are no military units near the plant; otherwise, if there were, one could understand the massive shelling of this specific territory.)
Просматривается следующая связь - у боевиков закончились деньги и теперь они шантажируют заводчан "деньги в обмен на жизнь без огня". От их беспредела страдают люди, авдеевцы, те, кто не дают своему городу умереть", - сообщил главный Донецкий милиционер Вячеслав Аброськин. (The following connection is apparent – the militants have run out of money and are now blackmailing the plant workers with "money in exchange for life without fire". People are suffering from their lawlessness, the residents of Avdiivka, those who do not let their city die," said Vyacheslav Abrosykin, the head of the Donetsk militia.)
Despite OSCE assurances, terrorists continue to violate the Minsk agreements and use tanks and other heavy weaponry. The Ukrainian side does not fall for provocations and does not respond to shelling.
