In the same vein, the public prosecutor’s office in Ukraine confirmed that children victims of the Russian attacks in Ukraine had risen to 892, and 892 injured since the beginning of the Russian invasion.

On the other hand, the authorities in Donetsk announced the Ukrainian forces shelled with heavy artillery and rocket launchers five medical centers and public facilities in one day.
