An additional fifteen people, including a teenage girl and two employees of Russia’s Emergencies Ministry, were wounded, Pushilin said. He said US-supplied HIMARS rockets and drones had been used in the attack, which damaged seven residential buildings in multiple settlements. Video and pictures published by Russian army news outlet Zvezda showed a woman covered in blood lying on the ground next to a car, as well as a bus and several buildings with their windows shattered. Reuters could not independently verify that had happened and there was no immediate comment from Ukraine.
