Strike on a retail outlet

It is reported that at around 4 pm, the Russians struck a shopping centre in the city centre.

"This is an ordinary urban space where people go about their business. It is precisely such places that the Russians deliberately target – to maim civilians, sow fear and destroy lives where they cannot achieve military victory," said Filashkin.
