Issued on: Modified:
Two missiles launched 40 minutes apart hit the city centre of Pokrovsk on Monday evening, following what has become an established Russian pattern of attack in Ukraine. “There’s a first strike then Russian forces are waiting for rescue workers to arrive onsite,” said FRANCE 24’s Emmanuelle Chaze reporting from Kyiv. “Then there’s a second strike which causes even more damage and also usually kills a lot of rescuers.”
