At least 30 people have been injured in a Russian strike on a railway station in eastern Ukraine, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The incident occurred on Friday, March 11th, in Kramatorsk, a city located in the Donetsk region of Ukraine. Zelensky condemned the attack, labeling it as a “deliberate massacre of civilians.”
The Russian government has not yet commented on the incident. The strike comes amidst heightened tensions between Russia and Ukraine following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in late February.
The railway station in Kramatorsk serves as a crucial transportation hub in the region, connecting various cities and towns. The attack on such a civilian infrastructure has raised concerns about the escalating conflict and its impact on innocent civilians caught in the crossfire.
The injured individuals have been rushed to local hospitals for treatment, with the extent of their injuries not immediately clear. The Ukrainian authorities are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the strike.
The international community has denounced the attack, calling for an immediate ceasefire and a peaceful resolution to the conflict. The United Nations has urged all parties to respect international humanitarian law and ensure the protection of civilians in conflict zones.
