Kramatorsk struck by Russian strikes, killing one and wounding 15
Russian military strikes on the eastern Ukrainian city of Kramatorsk and the nearby village of Bilenke resulted in at least one death and 15 injuries on Thursday evening. Donetsk regional governor Vadym Filashkin reported that the city was hit eight times within a thirty-minute window, with strikes impacting residential buildings and causing fires in apartment blocks.
In a separate incident in the Zaporizhzhia region, an attack on a roadway wounded a 25-year-old woman and a five-year-old child. These escalations coincide with reports from the United Nations stating that civilian fatalities in Ukraine during July reached their highest monthly level since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion, driven by an increase in long-range missile and drone strikes.
