At Least 10 Killed, Including 3 Children, in Missile Attack on Popular Pizza Restaurant in Ukraine

At least ten people, including three children, were killed in a missile attack on a popular pizza restaurant in Kramatorsk, Ukraine on Tuesday evening. The attack, which was allegedly directed by Russia, also wounded 61 people, according to the Ukrainian National Police.

The attack has been described as a “tactic Russia has used heavily” in the 16-month-long war in Ukraine. Two sisters, both aged 14, were among those killed in the attack, according to the educational department of the Kramatorsk city council.

Rescue workers are still searching through the rubble of the destroyed building, and the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs has arrested a man they believe was involved in directing the missile strike.

The attack has been widely condemned by Ukrainian authorities, who have called it a “heinous act of violence” and “an attack on innocent civilians.” The educational department of the Kramatorsk city council described the victims as “two angels” whose hearts were “stopped” by the Russian missiles.

The attack has sparked international outrage, with many calling for an immediate investigation into the incident. The Ukrainian government has vowed to bring those responsible to justice and to ensure that similar attacks never happen again.
