At least nine civilians killed in Donetsk region shelling

No less than nine people were killed in last night's shelling of Donetsk region, reports the local governor Pavlo Kyrylenko on his Telegram.

“The Russian air forces shelled Avdiivka this morning, targeting a residential area in the town’s centre. They also used multiple rocket launchers,” he wrote.

At least three people were killed in Avdiivka, just as many as in Vuhledar and Lyman.

Russia keeps shelling other regions of Ukraine, too. A 14-year-old boy was killed in yesterday’s Odesa missile strike. Today’s shelling areas include the regions of Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Luhansk and Dnipro. At least eight more people lost their lives, including one toddler.
