One person killed, 13 houses destroyed and damaged in Russia’s air strike on Bakhmut

Last night Russian troops launched an air strike on Bakhmut, Donetsk Region. One person has been reported killed so far, but the actual number of casualties is likely to be higher.

The relevant statement was made by Donetsk Regional Military Administration Head Pavlo Kyrylenko on Facebook, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“Extensive shelling all over the front line and strikes on settlements in the rear – that’s how we spent last night. Bakhmut has suffered the most from Russia’s weapons, as Russians launched an air strike there. One person has been reported killed, but the actual number of casualties is likely to be higher,” Kyrylenko wrote.

In his words, two detached houses were completely destroyed in Bakhmut. Eleven houses and several business premises were damaged.

A reminder that, on February 24, 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin initiated a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, starting a war. Russian troops are shelling and destroying the key infrastructure facilities, launching missile and air strikes on Ukrainian cities and villages, torturing and murdering civilians.
