Russia attacked Kostyantynivka with BM-27 Uragan multiple rocket launcher. At least 19 homes, a school, and a business were damaged to varying degrees.

Despite its relative distance from the frontline, the governor said, Kostiantynivka endures "constant" shelling.

"Like any other terrorist organization, the Russian Federation will pay for all its crimes," Kyrylenko wrote.
