Rocket attacks kill 15 in Ukraine's Mariupol
Mariupol, Jan 24 (IBNS): At least 15 people have lost their lives and 46 others were injured in a series of rocket attacks by pro-Russian rebels in Ukraine government-held port of Mariupol, media reports said on Saturday.
The Grad rockets also hit a market in a residential area in the east of the city, the police chief was quoted as saying by BBC.
However, the rebels reportedly denied that they had any involvement in the attacks.
More than 5,000 people were killed in fighting in the east since April.
