Russian attack on frontline Donetsk region kills two women and injures eight
On January 24, Russian forces opened fire on the city of Horniak in the Donetsk region, killing two people and injuring eight more.
Two high-rise buildings and 43 private houses on five streets were damaged, local governor Vadym Filashkin reports.
At least two people were killed and eight wounded. A 16-year-old boy is injured. He remains in extremely serious condition.
"Another targeted and deliberate attack on civilians, another war crime by the Russians," he said.
The governor called for evacuating the Donetsk citizens to safer Ukrainian regions.
Rescuers evacuated one person and removed the body of a woman from under a house destroyed by an enemy strike. At the site of the shelling, rescuers found a wounded child who was given first aid and transported to the hospital.
Rescuers also removed the body of a dead woman from the rubble of the building.
