A Russian missile has killed at least 16 people and injured dozens more after striking a Ukrainian market.<\/p>\n
Horror footage posted to X (formerly Twitter) showed the moment the shelling took place in Kostyantynivka in the Donetsk region, hitting stalls, shops and a pharmacy.<\/p>\n
Taking to the social network, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy shared a clip of the incident, captioning the post: "At least 16 people have been killed by Russian shelling in Kostyantynivka, Donetsk region.<\/p>\n

"Russian terrorists have attacked a regular market, shops, and a pharmacy, killing innocent people. The number of casualties could rise further.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"Anyone in the world who is still dealing with anything Russian simply ignores this reality. Heinous evil. Brazen wickedness. Utter inhumanity.<\/p>\n
"My condolences to everyone who has lost a loved one. The Russian evil must be defeated as soon as possible."<\/p>\n
The clip was followed by a series of photos, which showed the destruction left in the wake of the bombing.<\/p>\n

Cars in the street had been destroyed and fires were seen ablaze in shops lining the street where the attack took place, while inside buildings witnesses snapped photos of blood on the floor.<\/p>\n
Pro-Russia Telegram account Ukraine.RU hinted the Kremlin is now blaming Ukraine for the attack.<\/p>\n
"The video shows the moment of shelling of the market in Konstantinovka (under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces) in the Donetsk region," it wrote.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"Sixteen civilians were previously killed. Kyiv is already blaming Russia for the shelling.<\/p>\n
"What is great to hear in the video? You can hear the rocket exit and literally immediately arrive.<\/p>\n
"The conclusion is simple. The Storm Shadow missile (hello to the British and French) was fired from a Ukrainian plane, but its electronics failed it and it immediately followed a downward trajectory."<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The attack comes days after a tank was blown up in a tiny village in the annexed Zaporizhzhia region.<\/p>\n
The British-built "death machine" Challenger 2, worth an eye-watering \u00a34.2million, was reportedly destroyed by Russia after being deployed by the UK government to help Ukraine in its war efforts.<\/p>\n
A video of the tank in tatters was shared on the Wagner-affiliated Grey Zone Telegram group.<\/p>\n
They said: \u201c[This is] the first documented destroyed British Challenger-2 tank in service with the Ukrainian Armed Forces, namely the 82nd Separate Air Assault Brigade.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlso in these frames from near Rabotino you can see a destroyed Ukrainian T-64BV tank and two Kozak-7 armoured vehicles.\u201d<\/p>\n
