“On November 26, the Russians killed five civilians in Donetsk region: three in Ridkodub, one in Chasiv Yar, and one in Bakhmut. Four more people in the region were injured,” Donetsk Governor Pavlo Kyrylenko wrote on Telegram Sunday.
Kyrylenko said it is currently impossible to establish the exact number of those affected by the strikes in the districts of Mariupol and Volnovakha.
