Kiev [Ukraine], November 9: At least four people have been killed and 18 injured in Russian airstrikes targeting the south-eastern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhya, Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko said on Thursday.
Rescue workers were still searching for survivors among the rubble of a multi-storey residential building, he said.
Five Russian glide bombs hit the industrial city located some 30 kilometres from the frontline, according to the authorities.
In the neighbouring Donetsk region, artillery shells hit several residential buildings in the village of Mykolayivka. "Two people were killed and five people injured," Donetsk Governor Vadym Filashkin said on Telegram.
He again called on residents to evacuate due to the proximity of the frontline. Ukraine has been fending off a full-scale Russian invasion for over two and a half years. (DPA)
