Ukraine launches artillery assault on Donetsk
|
[RT] The Ukrainian military targeted residential areas of Donetsk with heavy artillery late on Wednesday, with the shells reportedly striking multiple districts of the city. At least ten 155mm shells were fired from the Ukrainian-controlled outskirts of the city around 11:30 pm, according to local observers.
A RIA Novosti correspondent confirmed hearing three separate blasts in different areas of Donetsk. Footage recorded by eyewitnesses captured the sound of explosions, while pictures from the scene shared on social media showed several houses and vehicles damaged during the late-evening attack.
So far, no information on potential casualties among civilians has emerged.
The attack followed a series of smaller artillery strikes earlier in the day, and came shortly before the extraordinary session of the UN Security Council, during which Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky accused Russia of being a "terrorist state" for targeting Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.
