The Ukrainian Defense1 Ministry2 has released a video showing the aftermath of an attack on a group of its soldiers near the city of Kramatorsk, in the Donetsk region. Tuesday’s attack was the deadliest the Ukrainian military has seen since it launched an operation last month to quell3 the situation in the east of the country.

The defense ministry says six servicemen were ambushed5 and killed, and eight others wounded in the assault. The ministry adds the attackers included at least 30 people who were using grenade launchers and automatic weapons. A seventh soldier may have died in the attack.
