RT’s filming crew appeared under shelling in Zaitsevo village in Bakhmutsky district of the Donetsk region in Ukraine on Saturday.

Footage shows RT’s correspondent Maxim Al-Turi leaving the dangerous spot amid firing shots.

According to RT’s management, no filming crew member got wounded as their health and lives were out of danger.

On Friday, the heads of the self-proclaimed republics announced the mass evacuation from the DPR and LPR to Russia. The governor introduced a state of emergency in the Rostov region.

Kiev and the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics have accused each other of ceasefire violations and shelling in recent days. The OSCE special monitoring mission report reports 222 breaches of the ceasefire regime in the DPR and 648 in the LPR, of which 654 explosions on February 17.

The USA and other Western countries have expressed fears that Russia could stage a false flag attack to justify invading Ukraine, amid reports that Moscow has concentrated around 150,000 troops next to the Ukraine border.

Russia has said it is carrying out planned military drills and that some of the troops have been already withdrawn to their permanent bases, though Western countries have said there is no evidence of a pull-back.

On Thursday, US President Joe Biden said military action could begin “in the next several days” but stressed that a diplomatic solution was still possible.

Moscow has denied intending to invade, accusing the West of stoking tensions.
