Maisky Market attack


On 13 June 2022, a Ukrainian artillery attack hit a marketplace in the Russian-occupied city of Donetsk, Ukraine, killing five civilians, including a child, and injuring at least 22, according to pro-Russian separatist officials.
The Maiskyi Market in the Budonivskyi district was reportedly hit, starting a fire. The pro-Russian Donetsk News Agency said the munitions used were "155-mm-calibre NATO-standard artillery munitions".
Local separatist authorities said that the attack had followed an alleged campaign of shelling in the city by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which had also hit a hospital.
