In Kryvyi Rih, Zelenskyy’s hometown, the Russian army struck a residential district with a ballistic missile overnight, destroying a three-story building and damaging 20 more, including a hospital, local Mayor Oleksandr Vilkul said.
“Unfortunately, 14 people were injured, and a 39-year-old man died of severe open brain injury. Ten people are in the city’s hospitals, the condition of one 60-year-old patient is serious, he is in intensive care, and the others are in moderate condition,” Vilkul said in a statement.
Russian drones also targeted Kyiv, with the capital under attack for the third night in a row. While Ukraine’s air defenses destroyed the drones, debris fell in two districts, wounding six people and damaging several buildings, Kyiv military administration head Serhiy Popko said in a statement.
