In Ukraine, rescuers are searching through the rubble of a residential building in the northern town of Pryluky after a Russian missile strike killed at least 22 people, including five children. It follows a wave of Russian drones and missiles a day earlier that killed at least 11 people and damaged homes, industrial facilities and infrastructure. Residents in the capital Kyiv sought shelter in the city’s underground metro stations, sleeping on platform floors. This is a resident of Kyiv.
Lesia: “The Russians always make the same loud claims about everything, that we started it, that we’re bombing them, that we were preparing in advance to strike them. But this is what’s actually happening right now: People are forced to go into the metro and sleep there. And then we’ll all get up, go to school or work, and go about our day as usual.”
Meanwhile, Russian officials say a Ukrainian naval drone struck a Liberian-flagged oil tanker off the Black Sea resort city of Sochi, setting off a massive fire. Russian authorities say all 23 crew members, who are Indian nationals, were rescued.
