Reports: Russians strike central Kramatorsk with guided aerial bombs, four injured

What happened

Ukrainska Pravda reports that on the evening of 25 May, Russian forces carried out an aerial strike on central Kramatorsk in Donetsk Oblast, resulting in injuries to four people, according to Kramatorsk Mayor Oleksandr Honcharenko. The attack involved two FAB-250 guided aerial bombs dropped at approximately 17:52 local time.

The central claim remains unconfirmed in the supplied material and should be treated as hearsay until corroborated by another reliable source or a named official. Mayor Honcharenko identified the injured as three women and one man, all receiving medical assistance. Emergency crews and medical teams were quickly deployed to the scene to provide aid and manage the aftermath.

This evening strike follows an earlier morning attack the same day, when five FAB-250 bombs were reported dropped on Kramatorsk, causing material damage, killing two people, and injuring three others. These repeated strikes point to Kramatorsk as a focal point of Russian bombardment in the ongoing Donetsk front.

Known from the source

• On 25 May, Russian forces struck central Kramatorsk with two FAB-250 aerial bombs in the evening around 17:52.
• Four residents (three women and one man) were injured in the evening strike and received medical assistance.

• The source of these facts is Kramatorsk Mayor Oleksandr Honcharenko, as reported by Ukrainska Pravda English.

What remains unclear

The continued use of aerial bombs of this specific kind signals the sustained intensity and scale of Russian operations targeting urban areas in Donetsk Oblast. Civilians remain at risk, with multiple incidents causing death and injuries within a single day, underscoring the humanitarian impact.

What remains unclear: Confirm whether the central claim is corroborated; until then treat it as unconfirmed/hearsay. Independent verification of strike attribution to Russian forces beyond local mayor’s statements. Verification of casualty numbers including fatalities and injuries from morning and evening strikes. Confirmation that the aerial bombs were indeed FAB-250 guided bombs as described.
