June 30 (Reuters) - A Russian missile attack on Friday on a village school near the frontline in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region killed two women, including a teacher, and injured six, Ukrainian police said. The 56-year-old primary school teacher and a chief accountant, 44, died in the strike on the village of Serhiivka, Ukrainian police said. "Russian troops, in a direct hit, destroyed a school where civilians were located," Ukraine's national police said in a statement. The Donetsk region prosecutor's office said four men aged 54 to 69 and two women aged 24 and 34 were injured and taken to hospital, and that it had launched an investigation into the attack. Groups of men, some in civilian clothing, others emergency workers in helmets, and uniformed police, walked atop the ruins, searching for survivors.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Sunday that Ukrainian forces had repelled a "brutal" offensive by Russian troops in the eastern Donetsk region. In recent weeks, however, intense fighting has centered around Avdiivka and the strategically-important town of Bakhmut. Ukraine's National Police said multiple buildings had been destroyed and people killed and wounded after intense shelling in the region. Meanwhile, global wheat prices have started to rise following Russia's withdrawal from the Black Sea grain export deal last weekend. Russia announced Saturday that it was suspending its involvement in the Black Sea Grain Initiative that was brokered in July and which allowed vital agricultural products to be exported from several Ukrainian ports.
