Original Note:
This was a strike on a gathering of Russian military personnel celebrating New Year in the Donbass Palace Hotel, not a strike against civilians. The Hotel was long known as a place for Russian officers to gather so is a valid military target. It's not a terrorist attack. https://newsukraine.rbc.ua/news/explosions-in-occupied-donetsk-smoke-over-1704106403.html https://x.com/wartranslated/status/1741602219533713842 https://x.com/tvtoront/status/1741755765700874656
