Details: Seven warehouses, petrol tankers and agricultural machinery have been destroyed at the premises of the company, which is a member of the UAC.
"Working in frontline areas is a real challenge. These companies remain the mainstay of local hromadas and should be a priority for state support," Dykun said. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]
