Kiev: At least seven people were killed and more than 100 others injured including 10 police officers and 12 children in a Russian missile attack in the city of Chernihiv in northern Ukraine.
The missile hit a polytechnic university theatre in the central square of the city during a drone exhibition, the country's Ministry of Internal Affairs said.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the attack and said that it turned “an ordinary Saturday into a day of pain and loss.”
"I am sure our soldiers will give a response to Russia for this terrorist attack," he said.
Minister of Internal Affairs Ihor Klymenko said on Telegram that most of the victims were in vehicles, crossing the road, or returning from church.
