Eatern City Ukrainian Shelling Kills 15

Report says Ukrainian shelling on the eastern occupied city of Lysychansk  have killed at least 15 people, Russia said Saturday, with 10 others sustained injury and rescue operations ongoing

Lysychansk, in the Lugansk region, fell to Russian forces after a brutal battle six months into Moscow’s offensive in 2022.

According to Russian officials said Ukraine had struck a building housing a popular bakery.

“Unfortunately, 11 people died,” Russia’s emergency situations ministry said on Telegram.

It state that rescuers “saved 10 people and handed them to doctors”, and that rescue operations would go on into the night.

The Moscow-installed governor of Lugansk, Leonid Pasechnik, noted earlier that Kyiv had targeted a bakery that was known to have fresh bread on weekends.

RIA Novosti posted a video of a heavily damaged building, with emergency workers pulling out an entirely crushed car.

The one-story building had a large sign on it that read “Restaurant Adriatic” and appeared entirely destroyed and covered in rubble.
