According to the official, the Ukrainian military carried out a brutal bombing of the Petrovsky district, where they hit a private house, causing the death of three minors: a young woman born in 2007, a three-year-old girl, and a 10-year-old boy, the Sputnik news agency reported on Friday.
The Petrovsky district is located on the western outskirts of the city, the furthest one from the center, and is the closest to the front line.
Since 2014, the year in which the Donetsk Republic proclaimed its secession from Ukraine, the neighborhood has suffered regular artillery strikes from Ukrainian troops.
