Claim 3: “Twelve civilians, including a teenager, were injured in Ukrainian drone attacks on the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) over the course of the day”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim is directly reported by TASS citing DPR head Denis Pushilin. While other search results mention injuries in the Donetsk region, they refer to different timeframes (e.g., February 27) or different contexts (Russian strikes injuring 12 civilians), and do not independently corroborate this specific August 12 event.
