A Russian attack on a supermarket in Kostyantynivka, a town in eastern Ukraine, killed 10 people and injured 35 others on Friday. The town, located just 13 kilometers from Russian positions, faces frequent strikes. Ukraine's Interior Minister, Igor Klymenko, confirmed the casualties and shared images of firefighters working through the wreckage. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky vowed that Russia would be held accountable. The attack follows a Ukrainian incursion into Russia's western Kursk region. Rescue efforts are ongoing, with fears of more people trapped under the rubble.
