Details: The Russians, as usual, blamed Ukraine for the attack. They claim there was a missile strike from the HIMARS system in the Leninskyi district of Donetsk, where preparations were underway for an automobile rally to mark the 10th anniversary of the DPR [Russian-backed Donetsk People's Republic terrorist organisation – ed.].
