Al menos 14 muertos y decenas de heridos en un ataque ruso en Kryvyi Rih, la ciudad natal de Zelenski
Moscú lanza una ofensiva con drones contra un centro comercial. Hay una veintena de niños entre las víctimas
A minimum of 15 people died and over 130 were injured in a Russian drone attack on a shopping center in Kryvyi Rih, the birthplace of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenski. Local authorities confirmed the tragedy, fearing the death toll could rise after the drone bombing. The attack was a double blow: a first drone struck the shopping center, and half an hour later, a second drone hit the area, deliberately aiming to cause more casualties.
President Zelenski condemned the attack, calling it a "terrorist act" on the Telegram messaging app. The regional governor, Oleksandr Hanzha, reported that about 29 people are in critical condition, including five children. Kryvyi Rih, located in central Ukraine, had around 600,000 residents before the large-scale invasion launched by Moscow in 2022.
The attack occurred just a day after Russia launched a missile offensive against the capital Kyiv, killing at least 17 people and injuring many more. The Kremlin has stepped up its bombing campaign due to a shortage of interceptor missiles in Ukraine, weakening its ability to defend itself. Zelenski warned that a response is coming.
Another Russian attack killed four people in the southern region of Mykolaiv, comprising three children and a woman, according to the country's public radio station.
