Donetsk residents report artillery fire in city center on Tuesday afternoon.

Despite this, public transport operates in an orderly fashion and most taxi companies take orders, an Interfax-Ukraine correspondent reported. According to eyewitnesses, it is possible to leave Donetsk by minibuses and by vehicle.

As Donetsk does not have water due to the damage of the filter station, city authorities have organized deliveries of technical water to certain sites in all nine districts of Donetsk.

Meanwhile, Makiyivka residents reports clashes. In particular, according to residents of the Hirnychy district, fire is heard from Ilovaisk, which was partially taken by the Ukrainian army on August 18.
