(Reuters) - Russian forces shelled a residential area of the eastern Ukrainian town of Kostiantynivka on Wednesday, killing one person and injuring three, prosecutors said.
Prosecutors in eastern Donetsk region, in a report appearing on the Telegram messaging app, said the attack used a multiple rocket launcher. One body was pulled from under rubble.
Reuters could not independently verify battlefield accounts.
Kostiantynivka has long been viewed as a key target for Russian forces advancing slowly westward through Donetsk region. It lies northeast of Pokrovsk, the sector seeing the heaviest fighting on the eastern part of the 1,000-km (600-mile) front line.
