Russian Shelling

"Russian fire killed five civilians in Ukraine’s Kharkiv, with one missile attack carried out after emergency services had arrived at the scene of an earlier attack, officials said. A police officer and an emergency rescue official were killed in that second strike in the village of
Budy. 
Ukrainian Interior Minister Igor Klymenko said it was not the first time that Russia attacked emergency services while they were “rescuing civilians”.
Regional Governor Oleg Synegubov said 22 people were injured in the twin attacks, including five railway workers. He accused
Russia of “deliberately” targeting the area twice.
In the southern Kherson region, Governor Oleksandr Prokudin said three people were killed in
Russian shelling. The victims were two women, aged 72 and 50, and a 41-year-old man, he said. Prokudin said Russian forces shelled Ukrainian-held positions throughout the day.
Donetsk Governor Vadym Filashkin said an attack by multiple rocket launchers hit a multistorey apartment building, killing one person in Chasiv Yar – a town targeted by
Russian forces as a staging point in advancing through Ukraine’s east.
A guided bomb, increasingly used in
Russian attacks, also killed one person near the town of Kurakhove, where some of the heaviest fighting is taking place along the 1,000km (600-mile) front.
Two bombs dropped on a village further west near the town of Komar killed two people. Ten buildings and a shop were damaged, according to reports." AJ
