Russian troops attacked the village of Komar in Donetsk Oblast on July 5, killing a woman and injuring at least 20 other people, Governor Vadym Filashkin reported.  

The center of the front-line village was struck with three Russian guided aerial bombs, according to the governor. The attack damaged 13 houses, four stores, two high-rise buildings, two administrative building and two infrastructure facilities, he added.

One of the victims died while receiving medical care, the statement read.

The type of weapons Russia used for the attack is being determined.

Settlements in Donetsk Oblast suffer from daily Russian strikes due to their proximity to the front line. Heavy fighting continues in Donetsk Oblast as Russia seeks to occupy the entire region.

Three people were killed and 27 injured in the region over the past day, Filashkin said.
