Soldiers with amputations enjoyed the performance staged for them in the hospital yard.
The band later sang Christmas carols inside a metro station.

Nearly three years into the war, the strikes wounded at least six people in the northeastern city of Kharkiv and killed one in the region of Dnipropetrovsk, the governors there said.
