What is known about an explosion in the Lysychansk bakery

According to Lusychansk City Military Administration (CMA), on February 3, the Russian occupiers reported a powerful explosion in the building of one of the local bakeries, where meetings of war criminals of the Russian army were held.

The immigrants who lived in Lysychansk before the criminal war unleashed by Russia recognised in one of the numerous videos the consequences of the explosion of a restaurant called Adriatic, located on the way out of the city, in the direction of the Lysychansk Refinery.

Representatives of the Lysychanska CMA note that the bakery opened on the site of the restaurant already after the occupation of the city by Russian war criminals.

The facility... was used by the occupiers for their own purposes. They ate and held meetings in it. The bakery started functioning already after the occupation of the city. It was launched to bake bread for the front... The arrival was at a time when the occupiers had gathered there. The list of those liquidated, which is circulating on the Internet, was compiled by collaborators, the CMA notes.

According to information from residents, the list contains the name of the owner of the establishment, i.e. a local businessman who also had shops in Lysychansk. In addition, the locals recognised the name of the man who worked in the "tax office" created by the occupiers.

Instead, the leader of the LPR terrorist group, Leonid Pasichnyk, blamed Ukraine for this, saying that 28 people were allegedly killed.

The occupiers call the place of arrival a bakery and claim that it was a civilian object.
