The exact number of the injured remains unclear. Residential buildings, an education institution, a gas pipeline and power supply wires were damaged.

A residential building was hit during Russian troops’ shelling of the Ukrainian city of Kramatorsk in the Donetsk region last night. At least three people were killed. “A residential building, a missile strike, civilians killed and trapped under the rubble. This is not a repetition of history, this is the daily reality of our country. A country bordering absolute evil,” Ukraine’s President Zelensky wrote.
