No live ordnance hit the bus carrying the orphans from the Donetsk orphanage to Mariupol. All children are alive and unharmed.
Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights Valeria Lutkovska told a news conference on Tuesday, a Ukrinform correspondent reports.
“Yes, indeed, there was the firing of the bus, but not focused on that bus, and the shell exploded near … All the kids, who went by bus from Donetsk, arrived in Mariupol live and intact jointly with the teachers,” Lutkovska said.
The Health Ministry also confirmed this to Ukrinform. “Children arrived in Mariupol. All alive,” the Ministry’s press service informed.
The Health Ministry clarified that prior 81children from the Donetsk orphanage were transported to Mariupol, including 20 children aged up to a year, accompanied by the medical personnel.
To remind, coordinator of the Information Support Dmytro Tymchuk reported on his Facebook page that terrorists fired the minibus on Monday, carrying children from the Donetsk orphanage to Mariupol.
