DONETSK (Sputnik) - The Ukrainian armed forces have hit a cathedral in the city of Gorlovka in the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), injuring four people, including clergymen, the Republic's Head Denis Pushilin said on Sunday.
"On Sunday, while the service was underway, the Holy Epiphany Cathedral in the Central district of Gorlovka came under attack from the armed formations of Ukraine. As a result of the Ukrainian attack, four people were injured. Among them are clergymen and volunteers who carried out a humanitarian mission, helping civilians," Pushilin said.
The condition of the injured is assessed as moderate, Pushilin said.
Pushilin condemned the attack as an attack on a sacred site and said that Ukraine had once again showed its "anti-human nature, fighting against peaceful and defenseless people."
