A city that once moved to the rhythm of industry and everyday life has now become one of the hottest spots in the Donetsk region. Before the full-scale invasion, more than 67,000 people lived here. By the end of March 2026, only around 2,000 residents remained in the city after months of heavy strikes and destruction.
Attacks have not stopped: guided bombs, artillery, and kamikaze drones continue to hit residential neighborhoods on a daily basis.
