In Donetsk, attacks hit infrastructure facilities in the Voroshilovsky and Petrovsky districts. But when it seemed to everyone that everything was over for today, another blow was struck in the city center - on the street. Chelyuskintsev.
Four shells were fired at residential buildings, and all of them exploded in a small area.
One exploded on the roadway, not far from a bus stop, the second hit a five-story residential building, the third hit an office center, and the fourth hit between green spaces near the road.
Unfortunately, at that time there were still people at the stop waiting for transport. At least two people died due to shrapnel wounds. Other information about the victims and wounded is being clarified.
Explosions damaged tram lines. Repair teams arrived almost immediately after the shelling, restoration work is underway, but transport on this section has been stopped. When we were already leaving the scene of the tragedy, we noticed that the lights were not on in several houses.
It turned out that everything was fine with electricity, it was there. It's just that people are already afraid to turn on the lights.
