KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Friday that a Russian missile attack on a Kyiv apartment building the previous day killed 24 people, including three children.
Emergency workers finished digging through the building’s rubble after more than a day, Zelenskyy said on X.
The cruise missile hit the nine-story corner block amid what the Ukrainian air force said Russia’s biggest barrage of the country since its all-out invasion.
The assault mostly targeted the Ukrainian capital, where 48 people were wounded, Zelenskyy said.
