As a result of the attack, 10 people were injured, including four children. Five more people are being searched for under the rubble. Police paramedics rescued the baby.
According to the prosecutors, at 23:30 on 29 November, Russian forces carried out missile attacks on the settlements Pokrovsk, Myrnohrad and Novohrodivka. Presumably, the missiles were launched from a S-300 air defence system, targeting administrative and residential buildings.
A family with two children, a 16-year-old boy and a 6-month-old baby, in Pokrovsk, suffered from the attack. Another 13-year-old boy was injured. Early reports indicate that an apartment building, nine private buildings, a police station, cars, and garages were damaged.
One of the shells exploded in the yard of a house where a family with two children lived. As a result of the shelling, the roof and walls of the house were destroyed, and the entire family was buried under the rubble.
A police paramedic helped a man with a bloodied baby in his arms get out from under the ruins. After examining the boy, the policeman wrapped him up and quickly took him to hospital. Six-month-old Ilia’s life is beyond danger now.
