The Rubizhne-Bakhmut humanitarian corridor enabled to evacuate 513 people from the cities of Rubizhne, Lysychansk, Severodonetsk and Popasna.

We also managed to save our people from the hiding place under the ruins of the bakery and from the hiding place of the school №5.

"Women, children, the elderly and people with disabilities were rescued due to the heroism of Luhansk police patrols. Despite the violation of the silence by the occupying forces, they pulled out all 155 citizens.
