Shelling kills one worker at east Ukraine coke plant - Metinvest


KIEV (Reuters) - Ukraine's largest steel company, Metinvest, said on Friday one worker had been killed and two wounded after its Avdiyivka coke plant in east Ukraine was hit by heavy shelling, damaging the factory's equipment and transport infrastructure.

Avdiyivka, one of the largest coke plants in Europe, is on territory controlled by government forces, but it lies close to the frontline and the Ukrainian military have accused separatists of attacks there since the ceasefire came into force in February.
