Russians open scrap metal collection points in Severodonetsk

The Luhansk Regional Military Administration reported this on Facebook, according to Ukrinform.

"In Sievierodonetsk, metal collection points are in demand. People who are unable to find work because of the Russians' inability to provide them with jobs bring everything they see around them - under their houses, from neighbors, from abandoned institutions," the statement said.

According to the RMA, in Troitske, the invaders once again deceived the population: they went door to door, checked phones and property documents, and counted empty houses.

"The invaders do not take into account their own losses among the infantry, ordering another fruitless assault. Their command does not care about the personnel, the main thing is what to submit to the headquarters. And they have not had any significant successes for many months," said Artem Lysohor, head of the RMA.

According to him, the number of wounded and killed Russian servicemen in the Svatove-Kreminna direction is only increasing.

According to the head of the RMA, medical workers from a special purpose unit of the 442nd District Military Clinical Hospital of the Russian Ministry of Defense arrived in Svatove to evacuate the wounded. Between August 1 and 7, they transported to hospitals in Belgorod about 500 Russian soldiers with gunshot wounds of varying severity.

"In order to hide the real number of their losses at the front, the dead Russians are sent to Rostov-on-Don," noted Lysohor.

The enemy is intensifying air pressure on the front line. Yesterday Russians launched an airstrike on Novoselivske and Belohorivka. Belohorivka came under artillery fire, the statement said.

As reported, in the Luhansk region, the invaders are replacing collaborators with officials from Russia.
