Final Evacuation of Chasiv Yar as Russian Forces Breach Outer Defenses
The intensifying Russian assault on Chasiv Yar using heavy glide bombs has forced the evacuation of the remaining 3,500 civilians. Ukrainian officials confirmed that the level of destruction has made the town uninhabitable. Evacuees are being transported to transit centers in Dnipro for temporary housing. This localized displacement reflects the total destruction of frontline towns in the Donbas. The evacuation was completed under heavy drone surveillance and intermittent shelling, according to local police.
