About the situation in Luhansk region as of the morning of 06/29/2026

In the "LPR", the warning systems have not been working for 12 years - the occupation authorities do not care, the invaders have not restored power supply to small settlements for weeks, the enemy has twice used rocket artillery in the Luhansk region

"Over the past day, the Russians tried to advance on the Lymanskaya sector of the front 21 times. They looked for weak spots in our defense near seven settlements. In the territory of Luhansk region, they fired six times from automatic grenade launchers. Four - from mortars. They used rocket artillery twice more. They also carried out 32 drone launches and tried to strike with four FPV drones," said Oleksiy Kharchenko, head of the region.

Almost all cities of the so-called "LPR" do not have a functioning warning system. This applies not only to settlements captured in 2022, where the Russians destroyed almost all infrastructure. We are talking about those that were spared from hostilities. For example, Khrustalny or Kadiyivka. The cities have been captured for 12 years, but all this time the occupiers have not cared about safety.

The inability of the Russians to qualitatively organize the activities of housing and communal services was manifested back in 2014, since the occupation of part of the Luhansk region. Since then, the chaos and inaction that arose there have only spread. If in large cities the population is still able to reach out and force a solution to the communal problem, then in villages and settlements the situation is only getting worse. There is practically no response to the complaints of the villagers. Thus, settlements near Rubizhne remain without electricity for weeks. No work is being carried out. The invaders are also silent about the timing of restoration.
