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.
