This was reported by the head of the Donetsk Regional Military Administration Pavlo Kyrylenko.

At about 3:00 pm, the occupying Russian forces shelled the village with artillery. One of the shells hit the yard where the children were. As a result, a brother and sister, a 10-year-old boy and a 16-year-old girl, were killed.

In addition, an elderly woman was wounded in the same village during the shelling.

"Once again I call on parents of underage children: take your children out of the danger zone! Children should not live near war. You are responsible for the safety of their lives, including before the law," added the head of the administration.
