MISSILES ON AN UKRAINIAN MONUMENT
The Donetsk Academic Regional Drama Theatre opened officially in 1847 and over the decades hosted masterpieces from honored artists who were renowned in the whole Soviet Union and fascinated many others to come from different city to Mariupol
On March 16 2022, the theater was largely destroyed by airstrikes during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The missile hit right in the center of the Drama Theater. Hundreds of civilians were apparently sheltering in the building at the time.
Since this event has recently occurred, at the moment there are not enough academic papers available, we preliminary provide other publications that will help you to deepen this subject. We hope to be able to enrich the section in the future.
