Also damaged were 15 shopping pavilions, 8 private homes, 6 high-rise buildings, a store, 2 cars, and a power line.

I emphasize once again: it is dangerous to stay in the Donetsk region! The Russians are deliberately attacking in such a way as to kill and maim as many civilians as possible. Do not expose yourself to danger! Evacuate in a timely manner!
