A Russian missile struck a residential area in the central Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih on March 14, injuring 11 people, including two children, the regional governor said.
Mr Serhiy Lysak, governor of the Dnipropetrovsk region, posted photos on his Telegram channel, showing damage to high-rise apartment buildings, private homes and a building that appeared to house a number of businesses.
Mr Oleksandr Vilkul, head of the city’s military administration, said two areas took direct hits.
One of the sites hit was a nightclub, he added.
Kryvyi Rih, President Volodymyr Zelensky’s home town, has been the target of repeated attacks in the three-year-old war against Russia.
A Russian missile attack on March 12 killed one person and damaged an infrastructure facility, high-rise apartment blocks and administrative buildings.
In the southern region of Kherson, Russian guided bombs struck a series of targets, including a residential area in the city of Kherson, killing one person, the regional governor said on Telegram.
