In addition, according to Mizintsev, the militants equipped a stronghold in a residential complex in Artyomovsk.
The general noted that the nationalists forbade civilians to leave their homes.
“People are actually used by the nationalists as human shields,” he said.
Earlier it was reported that the militants of the national formation "Kraken" placed their stronghold in one of the Troitsky schools in the Kharkiv region.
