A Russian missile strike hit a crowded shopping centre in the central Ukrainian city of Kremenchuk, killing at least 11 people and wounding 40, senior Ukrainian officials said.
The attack on Monday caused a huge fire and sent dark smoke billowing into the sky, footage circulated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy showed.
Dmytro Lunin, governor of the central Poltava region, wrote on Telegram that 11 people had now been confirmed killed in the double missile strike on the crowded shopping centre, adding that rescue workers would keep searching through the smouldering rubble, with more bodies likely to be found.
