Kyiv: Russia continued to attack civilians in Ukraine on Friday when at least 30 people were killed and more than 100 wounded in a rocket strike on a railway station in an eastern Ukraine city.

According to Ukrainian officials, the station was full of women, children and elderly people who were trying to flee the city when two powerful rockets struck them in Kramatorsk.

President Volodymr Zelensky described it as a deliberate attack on civilians.

“Lacking the strength and courage to stand up to us on the battlefield, they are cynically destroying the civilian population,” Zelensky said after Ukrainian Railways stated that the preliminary casualty toll was over 30, including 2 children.

“This is an evil that has no limits. And if it is not punished, it will never stop,” Zelensky said.

Kramatorsk Mayor Oleksander Honcharenko said about 4,000 people were at the station when the rockets struck.

Russia denied the attack. Its Defence ministry told RIA news agency that the missiles which struck the station were used by Ukrainian military as Russia’s armed forces did not have any targets assigned in Kramatorsk on Friday.

According to Ukraine officials, Russian forces are regrouping for a new offensive in the eastern part of the country known as Donbas.
