Today, August 20, the Russian army attacked Kostiantynivka in the Donetsk region with 'Smerch' missiles. As a result of the strikes on the local market, at least three people were killed, and four others were injured. This was reported by the head of the Donetsk Regional Military Administration, Vadym Filashkin.
Filashkin emphasized that the Russians specifically targeted the market.
'15 trade pavilions, eight private houses, six apartment buildings, a store, two cars and a power line were affected,' - wrote Filashkin on Telegram.
The head of the regional administration urged local residents to evacuate, as it has become dangerous to remain in the region.
'Russians are trying to inflict as many casualties as possible among the civilian population,' - he added.

It is also worth mentioning that 12 people were injured in the Sumy region as a result of a Russian attack last night, August 20. The Odesa region was also under fire.
