"In addition, the police found a 2-year-old boy at the site of the strike. Fortunately, he was not injured, but his father and grandfather were wounded. The child was evacuated to Kramatorsk. Staying with a child a few kilometres from the front line is the height of irresponsibility!" - Filashkin said.
