The unnamed investigator said one civilian had been killed, for whom he did not give further details, but did not mention any military casualties.
The Russian Ministry of Defense, as reported by the Athens News Agency, refused to comment and did not mention any casualties from the attack.
Ukrainian commanders said that their forces hit a Russian military awards ceremony by targeting Russia’s 810th Marine Infantry Brigade.
Robert Brovdi, a Ukrainian military commander, said in a post on social media that 25 people were killed in the attack and more than 100 were injured.
Video, the authenticity of which has not been verified, and which was posted on the pro-Russian platform Telegram, shows soldiers watching Mensich sing and play the guitar on stage on the day celebrated by the artillery forces of the Russian army.

During the song, the theater is suddenly shaken by an explosion and windows are heard breaking, then the lights go out and a person appears on camera speaking abusively.
Brovdi said the attack is “retaliation for the 128th” – a reference to the Russian strike this month targeting soldiers from the 128th Mountain Assault Brigade in which the brigade said 19 of its soldiers were killed.
Commenting on the Kumchatsovo attack, some pro-Russian bloggers expressed outrage that so many soldiers had been allowed to gather within range of Ukrainian missiles.
