There were also at least 43 people wounded following Russia’s launch of what’s believed to be an X-38 missile at Kostiantynivka Friday at 11:05 a.m., striking a local shopping center with food and hardware stores, the PGO said.
Under the Donetsk Regional Prosecutor’s Office, a pre-trial investigation is being conducted into criminal proceedings over violation of the laws and customs of war.
