About 300 local residents remain in the Dvorichansk community in the Kharkiv region: Russian drones constantly hunt civilians

Before the full-scale invasion, more than 16 thousand people lived in the Dvorichansk community, now about 300 people remain. The community is in a zone of active hostilities, up to 90% of housing has been destroyed.

This was reported by the head of the Dvorichansk settlement military administration, Halyna Turbaba.

According to her, the community is in a zone of active hostilities, and the situation has worsened due to constant drone attacks.

“These drones do not fly in – they are constantly on the territory of the community,” the head of the settlement military administration noted.

Of the 55 settlements in the community, 28 are under temporary occupation. The population from part of the territory bordering the Kupyansk community has been evacuated. People remain only in villages closer to the Velyky Burlutsk community.

The evacuation of civilians continues, but access to settlements is difficult. It was possible to enter the community only by dirt roads, and now, due to weather conditions, this has become impossible.

“Drones are being dropped on every movement. Not so long ago, a civilian car was hit – and there are no people. These are locals, whom we have been persuading to evacuate for a long time,” said Turbaba.

The evacuation is being carried out by the military and police, and then volunteers are taking people away.

It is already impossible to restore electricity supply in the community – repair work is being blocked by Russian drones. Humanitarian aid is also not being delivered at the moment.

Mostly older people remain in the territory. According to Turbaba, information about families with children staying there appears from time to time, but it is difficult to confirm it – law enforcement officers do not find permanent residence there.

The Dvorichny community has suffered significant damage to its infrastructure and housing stock: 90% of housing in Dvorichny has been destroyed; Administrative buildings, schools, and clubs were completely destroyed; in villages, 20–25% of houses were destroyed.
