The shelling of residential neighbourhoods killed two residents and seriously injured another. The occupiers once again struck at civilian infrastructure.<\/p>\n<h2>Russian attack on Kramatorsk: details of the tragedy<\/h2>\n<p>On 26 April 2026, Kramatorsk came under the gun of Russian troops. In the morning, the occupiers struck at the city's residential area. According to preliminary information, the munitions hit directly into the neighbourhoods where civilians were living.<\/p>\n<p>Two civilians died as a result of the shelling <strong>woman<\/strong> and <strong>man<\/strong>. They were outside at the time of the attack, and their injuries were incompatible with life. Another local resident, a 50-year-old man, sustained a mine-blast injury, a fracture and shrapnel wounds. He was hospitalised in moderate condition.<\/p>\n<h2>Destruction and the government's response<\/h2>\n<p>The attack damaged at least 8 residential buildings. The consequences of the attack are being assessed and the type of weapon used in the attack is being identified. Municipal services are working at the scene to provide assistance to the victims and to clean up the damage.<\/p>\n<p>Under the procedural supervision of the Kramatorsk District Prosecutor's Office, a pre-trial investigation into a war crime has been initiated. The criminal proceedings were opened under Part 2 of Article 438 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine - violation of the laws and customs of war.<\/p>\n<h2>Public reaction and legal implications<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/main-news\/rf-atakuvala-kramators-k-10-poranenykh\/\">Shelling of civilian infrastructure<\/a> Kramatorsk once again demonstrates the occupiers' disregard for international humanitarian law. The authorities stress the need to record every crime in order to bring the perpetrators to justice. The pre-trial investigation should establish all the circumstances of the tragedy and the persons involved in the attack on the city.<\/p>\n<p>Civil society organisations and local authorities are urging residents to be careful and follow safety rules during air raids. Psychological assistance is being provided to the victims and families of the deceased.<\/p>\n<h2>Why it matters<\/h2>\n<p>The attack on Kramatorsk once again confirms that civilians remain under threat in the frontline areas. Systematic <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/main-news\/ataka-rf-donechchyna-zahyblyy-poraneni\/\">shelling of cities<\/a> The Donetsk region shows evidence of targeted terror tactics against civilians.<\/p>\n<p>The destruction of residential buildings and the loss of life have not only humanitarian but also legal consequences. Recording these crimes is important for the future international tribunal and bringing the perpetrators to justice.<\/p>\n<p>Such attacks underscore the need for greater protection of civilians and international support for Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u041a\u0440\u0430\u043c\u0430\u0442\u043e\u0440\u0441\u044c\u043a \u0437\u0430\u0437\u043d\u0430\u0432 \u0447\u0435\u0440\u0433\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0457 \u0430\u0442\u0430\u043a\u0438 \u0437 \u0431\u043e\u043a\u0443 \u0432\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a \u0420\u0424. \u0412\u043d\u0430\u0441\u043b\u0456\u0434\u043e\u043a \u043e\u0431\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0456\u043b\u0443 \u043f\u043e \u0436\u0438\u0442\u043b\u043e\u0432\u0438\u0445 \u043a\u0432\u0430\u0440\u0442\u0430\u043b\u0430\u0445 \u0437\u0430\u0433\u0438\u043d\u0443\u043b\u0438 \u0434\u0432\u043e\u0454 \u043c\u0456\u0441\u0442\u044f\u043d, \u0449\u0435 \u043e\u0434\u0438\u043d \u043e\u0442\u0440\u0438\u043c\u0430\u0432 \u0432\u0430\u0436\u043a\u0456 \u043f\u043e\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f. \u041e\u043a\u0443\u043f\u0430\u043d\u0442\u0438 \u0432\u0447\u0435\u0440\u0433\u043e\u0432\u0435 \u0437\u0430\u0432\u0434\u0430\u043b\u0438 \u0443\u0434\u0430\u0440\u0443 \u043f\u043e \u0446\u0438\u0432\u0456\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0456\u0439 \u0456\u043d\u0444\u0440\u0430\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0443\u043a\u0442\u0443\u0440\u0456. \u0410\u0442\u0430\u043a\u0430 \u0432\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a \u0420\u0424 \u043f\u043e \u041a\u0440\u0430\u043c\u0430\u0442\u043e\u0440\u0441\u044c\u043a\u0443: \u0434\u0435\u0442\u0430\u043b\u0456 \u0442\u0440\u0430\u0433\u0435\u0434\u0456\u0457 26 \u043a\u0432\u0456\u0442\u043d\u044f 2026 \u0440\u043e\u043a\u0443 \u041a\u0440\u0430\u043c\u0430\u0442\u043e\u0440\u0441\u044c\u043a \u043e\u043f\u0438\u043d\u0438\u0432\u0441\u044f \u043f\u0456\u0434 \u043f\u0440\u0438\u0446\u0456\u043b\u043e\u043c \u0440\u043e\u0441\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a\u0438\u0445 \u0432\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a. \u0417\u0440\u0430\u043d\u043a\u0443 \u043e\u043a\u0443\u043f\u0430\u043d\u0442\u0438 \u0437\u0430\u0432\u0434\u0430\u043b\u0438 \u0443\u0434\u0430\u0440\u0443 \u043f\u043e \u0436\u0438\u0442\u043b\u043e\u0432\u0456\u0439 \u0437\u0430\u0431\u0443\u0434\u043e\u0432\u0456 \u043c\u0456\u0441\u0442\u0430. \u0417\u0430 \u043f\u043e\u043f\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0434\u043d\u044c\u043e\u044e [\u2026]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":207433355,"featured_media":17117,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_description":"\u0423\u043d\u0430\u0441\u043b\u0456\u0434\u043e\u043a \u043e\u0431\u0441\u0442\u0440\u0456\u043b\u0443 \u041a\u0440\u0430\u043c\u0430\u0442\u043e\u0440\u0441\u044c\u043a\u0430 26 \u043a\u0432\u0456\u0442\u043d\u044f \u0437\u0430\u0433\u0438\u043d\u0443\u043b\u0438 \u0434\u0432\u043e\u0454 \u0446\u0438\u0432\u0456\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0438\u0445, \u0449\u0435 \u043e\u0434\u0438\u043d \u043f\u043e\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0439. \u041f\u043e\u0448\u043a\u043e\u0434\u0436\u0435\u043d\u043e \u0436\u0438\u0442\u043b\u043e\u0432\u0456 \u0431\u0443\u0434\u0438\u043d\u043a\u0438, \u0442\u0440\u0438\u0432\u0430\u0454 \u0440\u043e\u0437\u0441\u043b\u0456\u0434\u0443\u0432\u0430\u043d\u043d\u044f.","rank_math_title":"","rank_math_focus_keyword":"\u041a\u0440\u0430\u043c\u0430\u0442\u043e\u0440\u0441\u044c\u043a","td_subtitle":"","subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[805616],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-17118","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-main-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17118","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/207433355"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17118"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17118\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17119,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17118\/revisions\/17119"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17117"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17118"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17118"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17118"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
