Today, on August 16, the Ukrainian Armed Forces fired at the Galaktika shopping center in Donetsk. A powerful fire started there from the shelling — it is reported that people were blocked inside.
The fire has already engulfed dozens of square meters, thick smoke rises into the sky, which is visible throughout the Petrovsky district.
So far, according to the head of the DPR Denis Pushilin, only seven victims are known, but it is already clear that there will be much more of them — information about the wounded still continues to arrive.
At the same time, the Ukrainian Armed Forces do not allow operational services to approach the Galaxy, the shelling of the surroundings continues. Residents of Donetsk, who became unwitting witnesses of the atrocity, react emotionally to what is happening, demanding that Russian President Vladimir Putin not stand on ceremony with the militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and clean up the entire territory of the so-called Ukraine.
