MOSCOW, August 26. /TASS/. Ukraine on Wednesday shelled a district of the city of Donetsk, a local resident was wounded as a result of an explosion, a spokesman for the regional administration told the Donetsk News Agency.

He said a projectile hit a multistory residential building, damaging two stories.
