Donetsk: Deadly blast hits market in Russia-held Ukraine city, officials say | BBC News

Published

on



At least 25 people have been killed in a shelling attack in the Russian-held city of Donetsk, the Moscow-installed leader of the region says.

Denis Pushilin said a Ukrainian strike, which also injured 20 people, had hit a busy market and that the casualty figures might change.

Russia’s foreign ministry denounced the strike as a “barbaric terrorist attack” against civilians.

There has so far been no comment from Ukraine on the incident.

BBC News was not able to immediately verify the circumstances around the strike.

    Ukraine cannot confirm the attack. This and some of these attacks are taken by AMERICA LED NATO. NATO PROXY WAR WITH RUSSIA IS AN ACT OF COWARDLY PRACTICE. IF NATO WANT TO FIGHT RUSSIA THEY CAN DECLARE FULL SCALE WAR WITH RUSSIA THAN ACTING LIKE HYENA AND LION WAR AT THE JUNGLE.

    Ukraine has already shown that it only targets military targets, even inside Russia. It may be a mistake or a Russian setup.

    Was this a Coincidental Accident or Not? – A Russian Ilyushin-76 military transport plane has crashed in the southern Belgorod region bordering Ukraine. At least 65 people Ukrainian prisoners of war were killed, according to Russia's ministry of defence. Ria Novosti news agency said another nine people were on board, including six crew members.

    So you want to wage war? Expect kickback. Don’t invade other countries don’t bomb those countries. Then none of this take place. And again…. Who attacked who? Russia and their allies need to feel it. Did I forget blowing up dams, threatening nuclear war, playing games with nuclear power plants etc etc? O, wait, I forgot genocidal acts and various war crimes too many to mention? Too bad for those who let their governments do these things.

    Oh I got it now. If it’s in Ukraine it’s OK but if it’s in Russian held Ukraine, it’s a terrorist act. Must really be bad if it’s in Russia?
    It just seems like it was Russians, who built killing machines put drunken soldiers in them and cam across the border to murder pillage and rape everyone, then steal what they had and send it home!
    Ronald Reagan seems to have been right about Russia being an evil empire!😮

    SOMEBODY hit Donetsk market. Let's look at the probabilities as to what happened.
    1) The Russians are claiming Artillery hit the market. This is HIGHLY unlikely. It was more likely a missile or rocket. Has everyone forgotten when a Russian missile malfunctioned and hit the same market. This is the most likely cause again.. Either a malfunction or a surface to air missile like an S-300 that missed its target and then fell to Earth.
    2) A Ukrainian HIMARS or Stormshadow that malfunctioned.

    Hello🐑🐑🐑🐥🐦🐦🐕🐶🐕May I share an Old Testament Verse with you from Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should SERVE Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." Also, can I share Isaiah 53:5 " But HE was WOUNDED For our TRANSGRESSIONS, he was BRUISED for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His STRIPES we are HEALED."

    God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone…" Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith & trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please?

    How many meaningless murders do we have to face before the democracies of the world react for real? As for now, it’s not “close enough”, but if it were you who had to try to put the intestines back on a toddler crying in agony, due to modern neo nazism? Democracy is great, but when it comes to threats against democracy… Shame on us!

Five years on from the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan | BBC News

Published

on



It has been five years since the Taliban retook control of Afghanistan, as western forces left, imposing their extreme, ultra-conservative interpretation of Islam on millions of people.

Their return to power brought relative peace to the country after two decades of war.

But Afghan women have been erased from public life. Girls are banned from school from the age of 12, and aren’t allowed to go to university.

Public parks are also off limits to women – and they can’t travel abroad without a male companion.
