The Mariupol City Council reported the information.

The incident occurred in the Left Bank district of the city.

The explosion injured three girls aged 10 and 13 and two boys aged 10 and 14.

Three children are in serious condition. Two are in moderate condition. 

“There have been several explosive devices discovered around the occupied city, found on playgrounds, in yards, on beaches, and even in damaged apartments. The situation is particularly critical in the Left Bank district, which has faced heavy shelling from the Russians. Despite more than two years of occupation, the invaders have not managed to clear the area of mines. As a result, civilians in Mariupol are suffering once again,” the city council emphasized.

  • On Saturday night, September 21, Russian forces attacked the city of Kryvyi Rih. Three people were killed and three others were injured. The city declared a day of mourning on September 23.
