Russians launched an attack on Sloviansk on August 15, presumably employing C-300 missiles, according to the mayor of Sloviansk, Vadym Lyakh.

"Approximately around 4:00 AM, explosions were heard in the city. Preliminary information suggests that the shelling was carried out using C-300 missiles. The "Zeus Ceramics" factory was affected," he wrote.

However, Lyakh noted that there were no casualties due to the shelling.

It is not the first time that the Russians have targeted the ceramic factory in Sloviansk. On May 5, the occupiers attacked the factory building with two C-300 missiles.
