Claim 2: “the Ukrainian armed forces fired 10 pieces of various munitions at the DPR”
SINGLE SOURCE
This claim is essentially a restatement of claim 0. While TASS reports 10 shellings, other sources report vastly different numbers (e.g., 92 attacks). There is no independent corroboration for the specific number of 10 munitions.

Claim 3: “The Ukrainian military shelled the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic 10 times over the past 24 hours”
SINGLE SOURCE
TASS reports that the Ukrainian military shelled the DPR ten times over the past 24 hours. However, another web search result mentions 92 artillery attacks in a 24-hour period, and a third result discusses Russian shelling of Pokrovsk. Because the specific number '10' is only supported by one source (TASS) and contradicted by another reporting '92', it cannot be corroborated.

Claim 4: “leaving five civilians wounded”
SINGLE SOURCE
The source 'УНН' specifically reports that five civilians were injured as a result of artillery shelling in the Donetsk region. Other sources report different numbers (e.g., The Canberra Times reports five killed and one wounded; another source reports one killed and one wounded). Only one source matches the specific claim of five wounded.
