On the night of August 25, Russian troops carried out another missile attack on Kramatorsk, as a result of which three journalists - citizens of Ukraine, the United States and Great Britain - were injured. This was announced by the head of the Donetsk regional military administration, Vadym Filashkin.
One of the hotels in the city became the target of the invaders. According to preliminary data, two journalists were injured, one more person remains under the rubble. The head of the region noted that all three victims work as journalists and are citizens of different countries.
In addition to the hotel, the impact also damaged a nearby high-rise building. Currently, representatives of authorities, police and rescue services are working at the scene of the tragedy. Debris clearance and rescue operations are ongoing.
This shelling is yet another proof that journalists who cover events on the front remain among the main targets of Russian aggression. Attacks on residential areas and civilian objects once again confirm Russia's disregard for international law.
