Two priests have been wounded in the Russian shelling of Rubizhne, Lunansk Region.
The relevant statement was made by Luhansk Regional Military Administration Head Serhii Haidai on Facebook, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
According to Haidai, the Russian shell hit the Church of Saint Luke of Simferopol in Rubizhne.
“The roof of the church was destroyed in shelling. The rector of the church and one more priest, who was staying within the church area, received shrapnel wounds,” Haidai noted.
