Russia Pounds Kramatorsk With Aerial Bombs – One Killed, Six Injured, Including Three Children
A Russian airstrike on a residential neighborhood in Kramatorsk killed one civilian and wounded six others, including three children. Three FAB-250 aerial bombs damaged at least 27 residential buildings.
Russian aircraft launched three powerful FAB-250 aerial bombs onto a residential district in Kramatorsk, a city within Ukraine's Donetsk region, on Friday, Oct. 23. This attack resulted in the death of one civilian and six others who sustained injuries, including three young children. The Donetsk Regional Prosecutor's Office confirmed the details of the incident.
The bombs, equipped with universal glide and correction modules, targeted a residential area, severely damaging at least 27 homes. The six injured victims included two women aged 45 and 54, a 47-year-old man, and three children – two girls aged seven and ten, and their younger brother, just one year and ten months old. The injuries sustained by the victims ranged from blast injuries to traumatic brain injuries, concussions, and shrapnel wounds.
All of them were currently receiving medical care. This bombing occurred just three days after Russian strikes on Kramatorsk on Oct. 20, which killed four civilians, including three municipal heating workers who were preparing the city's infrastructure for winter. Another civilian was killed in an FPV drone strike on the same day, with at least six people injured and significant damage inflicted on apartment buildings, educational facilities, and utility infrastructure.
