“Russia hit the railway station in Kramatorsk today,” police said in a statement.
“The rocket hit the temporary waiting room, where hundreds of people were waiting for the evacuation train.
“This is another proof that

Russia is brutally, barbarically killing the civilian Ukrainians, with one goal only — to kill.”

Police said first responders are continuing to work at the scene.

“It is already known there about 30 dead people, including children, and about 100 injured,” the statement read. “Assistance is being provided to all who need it.”
