http://kompravda.eu/daily/26238.5/3120452/
The journalist, who was an eyewitness says 7 people died in his field of vision.
The journalist himself was en-route to the spot, and only accidentally got delayed when he met an acquaintance and exchanged a few words with him. Otherwise he would have been among the dead.
He writes of a demolished fountain in front of the building and remembers how yesterday he was taking pictures of kids in front of that fountain.
All killed are civilians: 4 women and 3 men. The strike seems to have been targeted specifically in front of the building, where people usually congregate.
The video above captured the jet firing the rockets.

At least the commanding officer let them go, and didn't shoot the conscripts.
The more grim figures, is that 2 resistance fighters and one local civilian are dead after the first round of battle. 10 dead and 20 wounded on the army side.

Lugansk Army is evacuating civilians from the region of suburb Mirnyj (ironically that means "peaceful" in Russian). The reason is the fierce fighting with Ukrainian border patrol forces that has lasted for 6 hours now. People are evacuating in all haste, leaving all personal belonging behind.

Several buildings, including an orphanage, have been severely damaged by artillery fire in Slavyansk, eastern Ukraine, where fighting between self-defense troops and Kiev’s army renewed over the weekend.
Fortunately, there were no casualties among children at Sails of Hope orphanage, as all of them were evacuated after the building previously came under fire on May 19.

This is the third time that the orphanage has been shelled. Its windows are now shattered, and its roof and walls are riddled with bullets. There is a massive hole under a window. The building is likely to not be repaired, meaning Sails of Hope will be forced to find a new home.

Not only the helicopters, but also most of the Ukrainian fighter jets will also be targeted now. The Ukrainian Armed Forces will lose their air-superiority.
