Ukraine says Russian airstrike on Donetsk region kills 30, injures 18
AI take
This is a large single-incident civilian toll in the war, and the fact that some victims cannot yet be identified points to a death count that may still rise. The strike hit transport and residential targets in a city, which shapes how the event is likely to be framed internationally. The open question is whether the reported toll is revised upward as identification work continues.
