Description

Residential buildings were seen heavily damaged in Kramatorsk after the head of Donetsk Regional State Administration Vadym Filashkin reported the overnight missile attack on the city on his official Facebook page on Saturday.

Footage filmed on Sunday shows collapsed houses with damaged roofs as well as cars with blown-out windows and rubble scattered around the streets. Locals and construction workers were also seen sorting through rubble and restoring houses.

According to Filashkin, two houses were completely destroyed while 137 were damaged. State Emergency Service of Ukraine reported that 28 personnel and six units of equipment were involved in the search operation.

Filashkin also added that at least three people were killed and two injured. Among the dead reportedly were two women and a man.

Filashkin stated in his Telegram channel that the enemy 'fired three X-22 missiles at the city'.

Russian officials have not commented on the incident at the time of publication.

Moscow launched the military offensive in Ukraine in late February 2022 after recognising the independence of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics (DPR and LPR), claiming that Kiev had failed to guarantee their special status under the 2014 Minsk Agreements, and urging Ukraine to declare itself officially neutral and give assurances that it would never join NATO.

Kiev denounced the Russian action as an invasion. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky imposed martial law throughout the country, announcing a general mobilisation, while the EU and US imposed several rounds of sanctions on Moscow.
