Russian Forces kill eight civilians and injure 15 more in Donetsk

At least 7 people were killed and fifteen people were injured when Russia struck a market in Druzhkivka yesterday.

According to reports, Russia attacked the city in the morning, stated Head of the Community Vadym Filashkin, noting that all relevant services were working at the scene.

Filashkin noted that Russia struck the Druzhkivka community with cluster munitions, clarifying that the ages of the victims ranged from 43 to 81 years old, while those injured were between 50 and 72 years old.

Donetsk police updated that two women, aged 57 and 81, along with five men, aged 43 to 60, had been killed by cluster munitions fired from a Smerch MLRS system at midday.

Filashkin’s morning report noted that eight people had died and another 21 were injured in the Donetsk region over the past day.

Seven residents in Druzhkivka and one person in Liman had died from the Russian attacks, while 17 people had been injured in Druzhkivka, and one person each in Kramatorsk, Mykolaivka, Dobropillia and Kindtrativka.

Russia struck Kramatorsk six times last night, reported Head of the Community Alexander Goncharenko, noting that at 11:00am, a man born in 1987 had been injured in one of the city’s microdistricts due to a strike with an FPV drone which also damaged public utility vehicles.

At 22:35, a Russian Molniya-2 UAV hit a tree near a multi-story building, and at 23:05, Russia used a Geran-2 drone to attack the private sector, damaging four residential buildings.

Mariupol City Council reported that more than 100 apartments in the city had been left without electricity overnight, due to an emergency power outage which caused nine transformer substations to be disconnected from the supply.

Donetsk Police reported this morning that Russia had used two bombs, a Smerch MLRS system and drones to attack Druzhkivka in the past 24 hours, as well as five drones directed at Kramatorsk, three drones attacked Mykolaivka, and a FAB-250 was dropped on Malynivka.
