Ukrainian rescuers from the Donetsk region helped evacuate 37 children, three of whom were taken out of the active hostilities zone.
Donetsk region suffers from daily Russian shelling, so there are no cities to feel completely safe. Realizing the danger to their lives, residents are actively evacuating to other regions of Ukraine.
"Rescuers are helping the local population in every possible way during the evacuation, including when leaving the area of active hostilities," the statement said.
