Evening Update: Russia targets northeastern Ukrainian village, killing more than 50 civilians
A man reacts as he mourns over a body of his wife who died in a Russian strike that destroyed a shop and a cafe in the village of Groza, some 30 kilometres west of Kupiansk, eastern Ukraine, on October 5, 2023. A Russian strike on October 5, 2023 killed at least 51 people gathered for a wake in an eastern Ukrainian village in what a UN official called a "horrifying" attack. Footage published by the Ukrainian police showed a large area of smoking rubble and several bodies being taken away by emergency workers in the village of Groza. Ukrainian President said the strike had slammed into the Kupiansk district of the war-battered region bordering Russia, where Moscow's forces have been pushing to recapture territory they lost last year to Ukrainian troops.
