At least 28 people are killed when shelling hit a bakery in Russian-occupied Ukraine
Moscow-installed officials say Ukrainian shelling was responsible for the deaths of at least 28 people at a bakery in the Russian-occupied city of Lysychansk.
According to an article from The Associated Press, at least one child was among the dead Saturday. It is reported that a further 10 people were rescued from under the rubble by emergency services.
Ukrainian officials in Kyiv did not comment on the incident.
AP News said one civilian was killed and two injured in a Russian artillery strike in the frontline town of Toretsk, less than 30 kilometres (18.6 miles) from Bakhmut, quoting the regional governor of Donetsk, Vadym Filashkin.
The military administration for Ukraine’s northern Sumy region said Sunday that Russian forces had shelled the region in 16 separate attacks the previous day, firing on the border communities of Yunakivka, Bilopillia, Krasnopillia, Velyka Pysarivka, and Esman.
