Russian attack in Donetsk Oblast town Kostiantynivka kills 5, at least 5 injured.

Five civilians were killed and another five were injured in a Russian attack on the Donetsk Oblast town of Kostiantynivka in the morning of Aug. 24, local authorities said.
According to the Donetsk Oblast Prosecutor’s Office, Russian troops likely fired on the town with artillery, killing three men and two women. Another five — one man and four women — were wounded with various degrees of severity and are receiving medical treatment.
Donetsk Oblast Governor Vadym Filashkin said that investigators were on the scene.
Kostiantynivka, like other towns in Donetsk Oblast, comes under regular attacks from Russian forces.
A Russian missile strike on a supermarket in the town earlier in August killed 14 people, including three children, and injured 44 more.
Another Russian attack on a local market in Kostiantynivka in September 2023 killed 17 people and injured more than 30 others.
