It is also reported that the site of the “Ukraine” department store in the Kyiv district of Donetsk was hit, causing several cars to burst into flames. A short distance away is a clinic which was also hit according to the occupying authorities.

The Donetsk authorities blame the bombings on the armed forces of Ukraine. Kyiv has repeatedly stated that it does not hit cities and civilian targets. In war conditions, it is impossible to directly verify the statements of the warring parties.
