MOSCOW, October 6. /TASS/. The evacuation of civilians from social establishments in the combat zone in the LPR, where the Ukrainian army has been trying to attack, gives the allied forces a free hand to strike back, the chief of the LPR’s office in Moscow, Rodion Miroshnik, told TASS.
"The proximity of the frontline and knowledge of the Ukrainian militants’ Nazi tactics require that these establishments (medical and social - TASS) be systematically removed from the endangered zone, which in fact will give our military a free hand to adequately respond to the enemy and mobilize resources for military needs," he said.
Earlier on Thursday, Miroshnik, while commenting on the situation in Svatovo, said that "the main medical and social establishments are being evacuated." The local authorities, he said, were operating in what described as "reduced mode," as evacuation required considerable effort. Miroshnik said the situation in the north and northwest of the LPR was "uneasy but stable."
