Pokrovsk attack leaves at least 31 injured, with hotel and pizzeria damaged in the attack said to be popular with international reporters
Two Russian missile strikes on the eastern Ukrainian city of Pokrovsk, including on a residential building, killed at least five people and wounded many more, officials in Kyiv said. Prominent journalists noted that a hotel and pizzeria damaged in the strike were known to be popular among correspondents covering the war.
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Moscow had struck an “ordinary residential building”, publishing footage of a typical Soviet-era five-storey building that had its top floor destroyed. Ukraine said rescue operations were ongoing.
