Seven civilians, including three children, were injured in Russia's shelling of the town of Dobropillia, Donetsk region.

The head of the regional military administration, Pavlo Kyrylenko, reported this on Telegram.

"Russians continue to fire at civilians and civilian infrastructure in the Donetsk region. […] A residential neighborhood of Dobropillia came under fire today – seven people, including three children, were wounded and at least six houses and a non-residential building were damaged," he wrote.

Kyrylenko recalled that last night the invaders launched an air strike on a school in Pryvillia of the Cherkaske community. Neighboring houses were also damaged.

"The Russians are trying to do as much damage to us as possible, but they will have to answer for every crime," he said.

On February 24, Russia launched a new phase of its war against Ukraine – a full-scale invasion. Russian invaders have been shelling and bombing Ukrainian cities, towns and villages, torturing and killing civilians.
