A Russian missile attack has killed 14 people in the city of Chernihiv in northern Ukraine, according to Ukrainian officials.
Ukraine’s interior minister said there were more than 60 injured in the attack, which hit an eight-storey building in a densely populated area.
Three missiles had struck close to the centre of the city, officials said.
The attack came hours after reports of a Ukrainian strike on a Russian military airfield in occupied Crimea.
Details have yet to be confirmed, although local social media channels shared video of an apparent fire on the airfield at Dzhankoy in northern Crimea.
In Chernihiv, acting mayor Oleksandr Lomako said one building had suffered a direct hit from one of the Russian missiles and several floors had been damaged.
The presidential office in Kyiv said another four high-rise buildings, a hospital, dozens of cars and a higher education institution were all damaged in the attack. Ukrainian Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko said that two children were among the casualties, and police were searching the rubble for further victims.
