Quote: "One person has been killed in Tsukuryne in the Selydove hromada. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a town, village or several villages and their adjacent territories – ed.]

This evening the Russians attacked the settlement using Uragan multiple-launch rocket systems and struck a residential area. A 70-year-old woman was killed in the attack.

Ten private houses, two agricultural facilities, a bus and a power line were damaged."

Details: Filashkin once again urged people to evacuate from dangerous areas.

Update: Donetsk Oblast Prosecutor’s Office reported that the Russians hit Toretsk at 15:25. 

Early reports indicate that the settlement was attacked with a KAB-500 guided bomb. A densely populated residential area was targeted. Two neighbours aged 36 and 64, who were drinking tea in the flat of one of the women, have concussions.
