One woman received wounds and was taken to hospital.
DONETSK, April 3.
/TASS/. A child was killed in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) in a
Ukrainian drone strike, the DPR People’s Militia wrote on the Telegram channel.
According to the DPR
defense agency, Ukrainian troops dropped an explosive device from an unmanned
aerial vehicle onto an inhabited locality in the DPR.
"At that moment
two civilians were in their yard. As a result of Ukrainian militants’ criminal
actions, a child born in 2016 was killed, while a local woman born in 1954
received wounds and was taken to hospital where she was provided with the
required medical treatment," the DPR People’s Militia said in a statement.
The Donetsk news
agency reported citing the DPR militia that the tragic accident took place in
Aleksandrovskoye outside the town of Yenakievo.
The DPR defense
agency pointed out that it was the second civilian death in the DPR from
shelling by the Kiev forces in the past few weeks after an escalation along the
contact line in Donbass. On March 22, the DPR reported that a civilian was
killed by a Ukrainian sniper in a settlement in the west of Donetsk.
The DPR People’s
Militia called on the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission (SMM) to document the
strike delivered by Ukraine’s Armed Forces and to urge Ukraine to investigate
into the incident so as to identify those responsible and to hold them
accountable.
