At least three killed by Russian missile strike on Kramatorsk apartment building

At least three people died and at least 18 were injured as a result of a Russian missile attack on the Ukrainian city of Kramatorsk on Wednesday evening, according to Ukraine’s State Emergency Service. Eight people were reportedly hospitalized.

Ukraine’s National Police reported earlier that Russian troops used an Iskander-K missile to strike a residential part of the city, damaging at least seven apartment buildings and completely destroying at least one.

Ukrainian Presidential Volodymyr Zelensky said in response to the attacks that their perpetrators “do not deserve mercy,” and that Ukraine is “a country that shares a geographical border with absolute evil.”

The Russian Defense Ministry has not commented on the strike.
