As per the Ukraine Shelling Bakery Russia Control 28 Casualties, There has been no comment from Ukraine about the attack, and Reuters couldn’t immediately verify the weapons used.

After an invasion in February 2022, Russia gained control of parts of eastern Ukraine, considering the land part of Russia. Ukraine and the West refuse to accept the annexation of that territory.

The Russian foreign ministry condemned Ukraine’s attack, urging the West to consider why its financial support to Kyiv was used to harm civilians. Preliminary data suggests the use of Western weapons, according to Maria Zakharova, Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman.

Reuters confirmed the video’s location, shared by the Russian emergencies ministry, as the Adriatic Restaurant on Moskovska Street, Lysychansk, matching Google Maps. However, details, including the footage date, remain unverified.

Only about a tenth of Lysychansk’s pre-war population remains, according to Ukrainian officials. While Ukraine reclaimed some territory in 2022, its 2023 counter-offensive faced challenges against fortified Russian lines. In the last month, Russian forces seized 56 square miles of Ukrainian territory, as per the Belfer Center at Harvard’s Kennedy School.
