Russia Vs Ukraine: Ukraine’s Bakhmut city has become hell on earth, used to be buzzing with tourists… Russia destroyed many lives – ukrainian city bakhmut is completely ruined in russia ukraine war famous for tourism

Kyiv : The city of Bakhmut, which has a special identity as a favorite tourist destination in Ukraine, has to pay a heavy price for the long-running war. The city that was once buzzing with tourists now looks deserted. Strolling around the lakeside park in Bakhmut, tourists are attracted by buildings dating back to the late 19th century. Along with this, the historical caves built in this city also used to be the center of attraction.

However, the town of Bakhmut bears the marks of devastation caused by the ongoing war with Russia since last year. About 100 kilometers from the Russian border, this salt and gypsum mining town was once a popular tourist destination in eastern Ukraine’s Donetsk province. Russian military forces were unable to take control of the city despite heavy bombardments, but continued attacks forced local civilians to be displaced.

The city has become a hell on earth

Ukrainian soldier Petro Volosenko said, ‘Now this city has become hell on earth. I have no words to describe its circumstances. He said that the city was gradually almost destroyed and the buildings were lying deserted and the windows, doors and roofs of the houses were damaged. Volosenko said that before the war the population of the city of Bakhmut was about 80,000, while at present there are only a few thousand people left.

The sound of explosions echoing in the city

He said that even the survivors can hardly see the light as they too are forced to hide in the tunnels for safety reasons. He said that the echo of the explosions could still be heard in the city. February 24 will mark one year of the Russia-Ukraine war. Ukraine has had an upper hand in the war so far because Western countries are providing it with weapons on a large scale. In the last one year, the warnings of Russian President Vladimir Putin have also proved ineffective.
