JAKARTA - Russian Artillery hit a supermarket in the city of Kostitynivka, Ukraine, on the front lines of Donetsk. The attack killed two people and injured 17 others.

In an image shared by Governor Vadym Filashkin on Telegram, it shows thick black smoke rising from the destroyed building.

"The attack on supermarkets in Kostitynivka is another Russian terrorist act. Only the war against civilians they know about," said Ukraine's chief of staff Andriy Yermak on X.

Moscow troops control large parts of Donetsk, a Ukrainian-controlled territory often targeted by Russian airstrikes and shootings.

The region is one of the hottest fighting areas as Russia targets territory leading to a strategic logistics center in the east, Pokrovsk.
