6 Killed, Around 90 Wounded in Russian Strike on Shopping Mall in Ukraine
A shopping mall was struck in the daytime attack on President Volodymyr Zelensky's hometown.
At least 15 people lost their lives and over 130 were injured when Russian drones targeted a shopping mall in Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine on Friday, according to authorities. Twenty-two children among the wounded, with 29 people in serious condition, including five children, reported Oleksandr Hanzha, the regional Governor. The attack came amid escalating tensions in the ongoing conflict, with President Volodymyr Zelensky condemning the strikes as "absolutely cynical and despicable."
Zelensky alleged that a second drone struck the mall half an hour later in a deliberate attempt to target emergency services. The Ukrainian President urged the world to hold Russia accountable for such terrorist acts.
