Sputnik correspondent Russell Bentley disappeared in Donetsk.

His wife told RT that on April 8 they were in the Petrovsky district of the city, not far from the site of the shelling of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The arrival took place in the private sector and a car depot: “Russell decided to go find out if the wounded needed his help, and we couldn’t get in touch with him again. The search continues.“ The last material of the correspondent was devoted to the use of chemical weapons by the Ukrainian Wehrmacht. He didn’t have time to publish it, the woman added.
