Ukrainian volunteer Vlad Makhovskyi shared the information on Espreso TV."The evacuation has been very difficult in recent days. A couple of days ago, we were in the Huliaipole district, in the village of Nove. Four civilians were left there, and no one could get in anymore. But we were able to go in before dawn and pick these people up. By the way, among them was one man - the uncle of Anastasia Volochkova, a prima ballerina from St. Petersburg. That is, her own uncle was evacuated by Ukrainian volunteers from the Russian invaders. It's quite an interesting story," Makhovskyi emphasized.The volunteer also said that he had just left the village of Prymorske, from where he and the police had been evacuating people from the Zaporizhzhia region."As soon as we drove in, an enemy FPV drone almost hit us, but, thank God, we managed to steer clear and save our lives. So people are now leaving with us, along with their dogs and cats," Makhovskyi added.Ukrainian Major General Serhii Kryvonos noted that Putin does not intend to stop and seeks to capture Pokrovsk and Kupiansk to create a powerful lateral road in eastern Ukraine and continue the strategic offensive.
