Militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) have seriously damaged the Holy Mountains National Park in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR). This was announced on June 13 by the head of the republic Denis Pushilin.

"The enemy does not take into account anything, including protected areas, which are quite expensive for all residents. The Holy Mountains National Park has been seriously damaged by the enemy," Pushilin told RIA Novosti.

The head of the region added that the authorities of the republic are already working on steps to restore the national park after its liberation from the occupation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

In the Izvestia studio at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF-2026) on June 5, Pushilin said that soldiers of the Ukrainian army had begun to carry out the next stage of crimes against civilians. The Ukrainian military, as the head of the republic added, deliberately and deliberately attack those objects that are not military. According to him, such targets include highways of federal, regional and municipal importance.
