Russian missiles struck a restaurant in the eastern Ukrainian city of Kramatorsk, killing at least 10 people, including children, and leaving dozens injured. Yaryna, a mother of an injured baby, recounts the moment the missiles struck the restaurant.

The Ukrainian president made the comments a day after the mercenary group's leader, Yevgeny Prigozhin, flew from Russia into exile in Belarus after his aborted mutiny on Saturday. He was replaced as the top commander earlier this year but retained influence in running war operations."Surovikin has not been seen since Saturday - it is not known for certain where General Armageddon is located. There is a version that he is under interrogation," itUS intelligence had previously said Mr Surovikin knew about Prigozhin's plans to rebel against Russia's military leadership, according to the New York Times.
Today's reader question comes from Samuel, who asks: Has Prigozhin now lost all control of Wagner troops and resources, and finances after the attempted coup last week?Almost certainly not. The Wagner Group's operations in Africa are worth multiple billions of dollars - $1bn estimated in Democratic Republic of Congo alone - and these matter to the fortunes of a lot of people, including Vladimir Putin and his family.
He may also be buoyed up by the degree of popular support he seemed to have gained among ordinary Russians and quite a number in the army. One report released yesterday accused Russia of detaining more than 800 civilians, some of them children, and of executing 77 civilians since the war began last February.
"Russia doesn't hit civilians, only military targets," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Sky News in response to the latest atrocity being attributed to a Russian missile.Hitting civilian targets is a modus operandi for the Russian military and has been in all the recent conflicts it has fought, from Chechnya to Syria to Ukraine.
The doors we walked through just weeks earlier had been ripped from their hinges; the windows now great big holes laden with the ordinary things you usually find inside a restaurant. After the Kharkiv counteroffensive pushed the Russians back out of artillery range from the city, in time, things started to reopen. People came back.
