At least 15 people were killed and two dozen more are feared trapped after Russian Uragan rockets hit a five-story apartment block in Ukraine’s Donetsk region, local officials said on Sunday.

Donetsk Governor Pavlo Kyrylenko said the strike on the apartment building took place on Saturday evening in Chasiv Yar.

Kyrylenko wrote on Telegram Sunday that rescuers in Chasiv Yar had cleared nearly 99 tonnes of rubble from the site of the collapsed apartment block and that rescue operation were still going on as of 4 p.m. local time.

Russia, which says it is conducting a “special military operation” to demilitarize Ukraine, denies deliberately attacking civilians.

Luhansk and Donetsk comprise the Donbas, which has been considered Europe’s biggest battlefield in generations. Russia wants to wrest control of the Donbas on behalf of the separatists it supports.
