Casualties from Russia shells Sloviansk Ukraine attack
According to local officials, at least 1 civilian lost their life and 5 others were hospitalized with varying degrees of injuries. Emergency crews don't expect the casualty count to remain static as they continue to search through the rubble of destroyed homes. The strike reportedly hit multiple civilian structures, leaving several families homeless in the middle of winter.
