Despite this, the DRMA continues to report that civilians remain in the areas of active combat operations.

It is important to note that, among these 17,000 civilians, there are 34 children who are not accounted for in the evacuation figures. This leaves an estimated 15,645 civilians remaining in the 18 communities, including approximately 13,856 adults.

In total, approximately 216,000 civilians live on Ukrainian-controlled territory in the Donetsk region. The current number of civilians living on this territory is not specified in the provided information.
