Russian forces shelled the town of Kurakhove in Donetsk Oblast, killing a 31-year-old man on the spot and injuring another person, reported the head of the Donetsk Military Administration Vadym Filashkin.
"The Russians shelled the town with Grad rockets, hitting residential buildings. A 31-year-old man was killed at the scene of impact, another person was injured," Filashkin wrote on Telegram.
He also added that the strike damaged a kindergarten and several other buildings, causing a fire that rescuers have already extinguished.
