On 13 June 2022, an alleged Ukrainian artillery attack hit a marketplace in the Russian-occupied city of Donetsk, Ukraine, killing five civilians, including a child,[3] and injuring at least 22, according to pro-Russian separatist officials.[1][4][5]

The Maiskyi Market in the Budonivskyi district was reportedly hit,[6] starting a fire.[1][7] The pro-Russian Donetsk News Agency said the munitions used were "155-mm-calibre NATO-standard artillery munitions".[3]

Local separatist authorities said that the attack had followed an alleged campaign of shelling in the city by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which had also hit a hospital.[1]
