Three people were killed and 12 were injured overnight in the Russian bombing of the town of Selidova, not far from Donetsk in eastern Ukraine, local authorities said.
Nine residential buildings, as well as a hospital in this city, were hit in the strikes, Telegram reported this morning.
Among the dead was a child.
About 100 patients from the damaged hospital were evacuated to other hospitals in Pokrovsk and Mirnograd.
Selidove, which before the war had about 21.000 inhabitants, is located near the large city of Donetsk, which has been under Russian occupation since 2014. The city is located about 20 kilometers from the front line.
At the same time, the Russian air defense announced that it had intercepted two Ukrainian drones over the Belgorod region, not far from the border with Ukraine, one over Voronezh and another six over the Black Sea.
