A shopping center in Kremenchuk, Ukraine, has been engulfed in flames by a Russian missile attack.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia had attacked a shopping center in central Ukraine with missiles.
President Zelensky said via Telegram that a Russian missile was dropped on a shopping center in the city of Kremenchuk, Poltava Province, in central Ukraine.
"There were over 1,000 people in the shopping center at the time the missile fell," said President Zelensky, posting a video of flames and black smoke rising from the shopping center.
"The shopping center is engulfed in flames and firefighters are working to extinguish it," Zelensky wrote. "It is difficult to imagine the number of victims."
Kremenchuk Mayor Vitali Meletskiy said there were casualties in the attack, but did not disclose the exact number of casualties.
Poltava Governor Dmitro Lunin later issued a statement saying "10 people were killed and more than 40 were injured" and that "21 people were hospitalized."
"Six of the injured are in critical condition, and the rest, including two children, were treated without being hospitalized," he added.
With a population of about 217,000, Kremenchuk is an industrial city with the largest oil refinery in Ukraine.
