On July 19, 2015, Ukraine government’s forces initiated anew the bombardment of civilian targets in Donetsk and Gorlovka. For this they used artillery pieces of 152 mm, that have been banned in the agreement on ceasefire – namely, these heavy weaponry were supposed have been withdrawn from the operation’s scenario. This entails a double war-crime: a) the targets: the hospital, school and civilian areas hit elsewhere; b) the weaponry used, banned by the agreement.

The Professors’ Blog have used several, independent sources for this pictorial. We have also included a video (uploaded by Patrick Lancaster) documenting the shelling on the hospital.
