Reports coming in about a possible explosion in Donetsk & "something very bad" happening in the DPR - no details yet

The "very bad" thing may have happened on the frontlines, not in Donetsk. Seems to be pretty bad, but literally zero information yet

talk of a "big loss" - can't tell what this means, possibly someone important KIA or a harsh military defeat, but a bunch of war reporters are saying they can't talk about it yet

yeah it's the former - the commander of the legendary Sparta Battalion from Donetsk Vladimir Zhoga was Killed in Action near Volnovakha

the explosion reported at the same time was a ukrainian shell hitting a hospital, but no casualties
