Clean-up crews arrived at the train station in Kramatorsk, in eastern Ukraine, where dozens of Ukrainians were killed by a Russian missile strike on Friday as they waited to leave the fighting. CNN saw workers wearing plastic gloves collecting scattered human remains. Others searched through papers and documents scattered around the station. Plastic bags full of food lay on the ground, next to cut hats, gloves and shoes. Several points of impact from the strike were visible, including what appeared to be a direct hit on a car. Pools of blood and a dead dog, partially covered with a white sheet, lay beside the tracks. At least 50 people, including five children, were killed in the attack, Ukrainian officials said on Friday, while dozens more were taken to local hospitals. The remains of the missile were collected and transported by specialists. In the courtyard of the station, a pile of abandoned luggage sat unattended.

Sloviansk residents have fled the city in recent days after local officials warned of a Russian attack approaching from Izium. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the attack on Kramatorsk a war crime in a message on Friday and said he would investigate in detail. “This is another war crime in Russia for which everyone involved will be held accountable,” he said, adding that Russian state propaganda had tried to blame the Ukrainian armed forces for the attack. “We expect a solid, global response to this war crime,” Zelensky said. “Like the Bucha massacre, as well as many other Russian war crimes, the Kramatorsk rocket attack must be one of the charges in court, which is certain to happen.” Background: Russia’s military and senior officials have issued general denials of attacks on civilians, including allegations – without evidence – that the massacre of civilians in Bucha was organized. The killing of civilians during the Russian occupation of the city has been extensively documented.
