One woman killed in Russia's bombing of Kostiantynivka, Ukraine says

(Reuters) - One woman was killed and three others were injured in Russia's guided bomb attacks on the industrial city of Kostiantynivka in the eastern Donetsk region, Ukrainian officials said late on Saturday.

"The enemy once again hit a residential building in Kostiantynivka - an investigation has been launched into the death of one and the injury of three civilians," the regional prosecutor's office said on the Telegram messaging app.

Ukraine's state emergency service said on its Telegram channel that rescuers have since recovered the body of the 70-year-old woman from under the rubble and that three other women were also injured.

Seven apartment buildings and 14 other buildings were damaged in the attack, the service said.

The prosecutor's office and the emergency service posted photos showing what looked like an apartment building that was partially collapsed with all windows blown out.

There was no immediate comment from Russia.

Both sides deny targeting civilians in the war that Russia launched with its full-scale invasion three years ago. But thousands of civilians have died in the conflict, the vast majority of them Ukrainian.
