Four killed, nine injured in Russian strike on Kramatorsk

A Ukrainian official reported that a Russian strike on the eastern city of Kramatori killed four people, including a teenager, and wounded nine others. The attack, which took place in a residential area of the city, caused damage to nearby buildings and prompted an immediate response from local emergency services.

Kramatori, a strategic hub in the Donetsk region that remains under Ukrainian control, has been repeatedly targeted since the conflict began. Ukrainian authorities have condemned the strike as a violation of international humanitarian law and have called for an investigation, while the injured are being treated in local hospitals. The incident adds to the growing civilian toll in the region and underscores the ongoing volatility of the front lines.
