According to Pavlo Kyrylenko, chief of the military administration for the Donetsk area, the attacks occurred at approximately 7:30 p.m. local time on Tuesday.

“We are now working in the city to establish the number of wounded and possibly dead. This is the city centre. These were public eating places crowded with civilians,” he said.
