Russia's war on Ukraine latest: No sign of losses in attack Russia said killed Ukrainian troops

(Reuters) - A Russian rocket strike on the Ukrainian city of Kramatorsk caused damage but did not destroy buildings and there were no obvious signs of casualties, a Reuters witness said on Sunday, after Russia said the attack killed 600 Ukrainian soldiers.

* The ministry said the strike was revenge for Ukraine's New Year's Day attack that killed at least 89 Russian soldiers at a barracks in part of the Donetsk region controlled by Moscow's forces.

* Reuters reporters visited the two college dormitories Russia's defence ministry said had been temporarily housing Ukrainian servicemen close to the front line of the war at the time of the overnight strike. Neither appeared to have been directly hit by missiles or seriously damaged. There were no obvious signs that soldiers had been living there and no sign of bodies or traces of blood.

* Two thermal power plants were damaged by Ukrainian shelling in Russian-controlled parts of the country's Donetsk region with preliminary reports of injuries, Moscow-installed officials said on Sunday.

Isn't that the number of Russians (disputed by Russia) killed in the New Year's Day attack?
