More than 35 people were killed and more than 100 injured today in a missile attack on a train station in Kramatorsk, eastern Ukraine, Reuters news agency quoted the head of the Ukrainian Railway Company as saying.

"More than 30 people were killed and more than 100 were injured in the missile attack on the train station in Kramatorsk... It is a deliberate attack on the passenger transport infrastructure of the railways and on the people of Kramatorsk," Alexander Kamyshin wrote on social media.

The governor of Donetsk said that dozens may have been killed as a result of the bombing that targeted the station, which Reuters news agency said that thousands of civilians were inside when it was targeted by two missiles.

In his first comment on the attack, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Russia is an "unlimited evil," noting that the Russians began targeting civilians because of their army's failure in confrontations during the battles.

The Ukrainian presidency also considered the missile strike on the station "another bloody crime and an attempt to disrupt the evacuation and intimidate people."
