The Russian occupants attacked the train station in Kramatorsk with Tochka U missiles, killing at least 30 people and injuring more than 100. At the moment of the enemy's missile attack on the railway station in Kramatorsk on 8 April, 4,000 civilians were staying there.
"At that time, the evacuation of the population was underway, and more than 4,000 civilians, most of them women and children, were staying at the station.
According to earlier data, dozens of people were killed or injured. Full information about the victims of the enemy's attack and the damaged infrastructure is being established," the press service of the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine reports.
Law enforcement officers and security guards are working at the scene.
The head of the Donetsk Regional Prosecutor's Office launched a pre-trial investigation into the criminal proceedings for violation of the laws and customs of war.
Pavlo Kyrylenko, head of the Donetsk Regional Military Administration, said that the Russian occupants "knew very well what they were aiming at and what they wanted: they wanted to spread panic and fear, they wanted to take as many civilians as hostages as it was possible."
According to operative data, at least two children were killed because of the shelling of the Kramatorsk railway station by Russian troops. "The more cynical the inscription For Children on the Russian missile looks," commented the head of Ukrzaliznytsia Oleksandr Kamyshin.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky commented on this tragedy on his Instagram: "Not having the strength and courage to oppose us on the battlefield, they cynically destroy the civilian population. This evil has no limits. And if it is not punished, it will never stop."
