Two convoys\u00a0went towards Dzerzhynsk one hour apart, the\u00a0third one went in the direction of the town of Mayorsk.<\/p>\n<p>Until 22:00 sounds of low intensity fights with random breaks between them could be heard on the outskirts of the town from the north, northeast and northwest.<\/p>\n<p>At about 22:00 a massive shelling started from the town of Horlivka in\u00a0the direction of the town of Dzerzhynsk and the town of Mayorsk .

They are located in the same spots\u00a0they used before the occupation.\r\n\r\nFor the whole day civilians could see\u00a0active\u00a0movements of covered trucks, transporting a lot of militants\u2019 personnel in different directions.\r\n\r\n17:24 - Tank fire from <b>Yasinovata <\/b>was registered.\r\n\r\n17:45 - Powerful salvo fire of\u00a0heavy artillery made from the direction\u00a0of <b>Yakovlivka.<\/b>\r\n\r\n18:11 - Kyivskyi district, from time to time mortar and heavy artillery salvos could be heard.\r\n\r\n19:45 - One\u00a0BTR with personnel on its armor moved under the Russian flag from the city along the Ilyich Avenue.\r\n\r\nFrom 22:45 to 23:10 there was a firefight in Kirovskyi and Kalininskyi districts.

Overall, in this area a high concentration of military equipment is registered.\r\n\r\n<b>Horlivka<\/b>\r\n\r\nStarting from 20:00, there was active movement of weapons convoys,\u00a0including self-propelled guns, tanks, and BTRs. Convoys\u00a0were moving in different directions. Two convoys\u00a0went towards Dzerzhynsk one hour apart, the\u00a0third one went in the direction of the town of Mayorsk.\r\n\r\nUntil 22:00 sounds of low intensity fights with random breaks between them could be heard on the outskirts of the town from the north, northeast and northwest.\r\n\r\nAt about 22:00 a massive shelling started from the town of Horlivka in\u00a0the direction of the town of Dzerzhynsk and the town of Mayorsk . Shelling was conducted with the use of howitzers, self-propelled artillery guns (SPG) and heavy artillery.

The interval was about 1-3 minutes, with artillery shelling getting more and more intensive on the background. In total there were 5-6 launches.\r\n\r\n23:06 - Militants\u2019 artillery in the area of the quarry\u00a0of the 5th block\u00a0and the mechanical rubber goods factory\u00a0joined the shelling.\r\n\r\n23:09 The intensity of the fire increased significantly, in the area of the town of Mayorsk powerful incoming explosions could be heard together with the sounds of small arms fire.\r\n\r\n23:34 - The artillery located in the territory of wholesale depots on Minina and Pazharskoho Streets\u00a0joined the shelling.\r\n\r\n23-45 shots heard from the Holmivskyi village.\r\n\r\n23:48 Tank cannon fire\u00a0heard from the Stroitel district.\r\n\r\n23-56 - Artillery fire\u00a0started from the area of 5th block.\r\n\r\n23:57 - Local residents also note\u00a0that mercenaries shoot from one town district (wholesale depots) at another district (Komsomolets). Probably this is done in order to cause panic among local residents.\r\n\r\nLocal residents say that fires are occurring\u00a0in the town. In particular, a fire started\u00a0in the area of the filtration plant on the crossroads of Ostapenko Street and Lenina Avenue.

As a result of this shelling there are victims among civilians.\r\n\r\n<strong>Sector \u201cA\u201d<\/strong>\r\n\r\nWe remind the readers that militants announced military training across all of\u00a0the occupied territory of Luhansk region, to be held on April 28th.\r\n\r\n<b>Village of Obozne<\/b> \u00a0<b>(<\/b>48.733058, 39.308767). Militants\u2019 weaponry\u00a0is located in nearly every\u00a0yard. Locals say there has never been so much of it\u00a0before.\r\n\r\n<b>Stakhanov<\/b> \u2013 a unit with signs of Russian engineer troops and with a lot of engineer equipment has arrived. It is likely that Russian high rank officers arrived together with the engineers.\r\n\r\nMany stores accept payment only in Russian rubles, which also indirectly confirms that a lot of Russian servicemen have arrived to the town.\r\n\r\n<b>Luhansk \u2013<\/b> a \u201ctraining alert\u201d has been announced in Luhansk in the morning. Starting at\u00a0nighttime, large weapons\u00a0convoys\u00a0were moving in the city.\r\n\r\nFrom 13:00 to 13:40 there were several explosions and machine gun fire on the training grounds that were\u00a0heard in the city.

Locals notice such movement of equipment for the 3rd day in a row at the same time, which brings them to the conclusion that trucks and\u00a0weapons\u00a0move through the Russian-Ukrainian border during the precisely specified time.\r\n\r\n<strong>Shchastya<\/strong>\r\n\r\nA work of subversive-reconnaissance groups has extremely intensified on the northern direction of Luhansk region. Last night there was a fight with a large enemy reconnaissance group near the town of Shchastya.

There are wounded and dead.\r\n\r\n<b>Alchevsk<\/b>\r\n\r\nScrap iron from the Alchevsk metallurgical complex is being taken away to Russia via railway. Pensions in Alchevsk are given in rubles.\r\n\r\n<b>Lutuhyne<\/b>\r\n\r\nOver the last 4 days at least 3 mercenaries were killed in Lutuhyne area, one was wounded. Mostly these were results of domestic conflicts with Russians.\r\n\r\n<b>Krasnyi<\/b> <b>Luch<\/b>\r\n\r\nNearly 150 items of armored equipment are concentrated along the road Luhansk-Krasnyi Luch.

During the training mercenaries were shooting with BM-21 \u201cGrad\u201d multiple rocket launchers.\r\n\r\nExtremely long lines\u00a0appear at\u00a0the border crossings, captured by Russian occupants. This is caused by convoys\u00a0of Russian equipment arriving\u00a0all the time.\r\n\r\n<b>Izvarine border crossing <\/b>\r\n\r\nA large convoy\u00a0of armor has passed from Russia to Luhansk region over the last 24 hours. The column included 15 tanks, equipment also arrives via rail.\r\n\r\n<b>Dolzhanskyi\u00a0border crossing<\/b>\r\n\r\nLarge convoys of trucks take Donbass coal out to Russia.\r\n\r\n<b>Sector \u201cB\u201d and \u201cM\u201d<\/b>\r\n\r\nIn the morning the village of Hranitne was\u00a0shelled for 2 hours, shells hit the Chervonych Partyzan Street right in the middle of the street.

BTRs had their HEAT protection\u00a0removed, soldiers were in standard Russian field uniform.\r\n\r\n<b>Conclusion:<\/b> Militants together with Russian servicemen continue provocative shelling of Ukrainian forces positions. They also accummulate\u00a0weapons\u00a0and ammunition and terrorize local residents in the occupied territories.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/\"><i>InformNapalm<\/i><\/a>\r\n\r\n<i>(\u0441) This material was prepared exclusively for <\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/\"><i>InformNapalm<\/i><\/a><i>, a reference to the source is required when using the information.<\/i>\r\n\r\nTranslated by Maksym Sviezhentsev.\r\n\r\nEdited by Max Alginin.\r\n\r\n\u0420\u0443\u0441\u0441\u043a\u0438\u0439\u00a0https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/8582-hronyka-sobytyj-v-zone-ato-za-28-04-15\r\n\r\n&nbsp;","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4109"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4109\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4113,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4109\/revisions\/4113"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4030"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4109"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4109"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/informnapalm.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
