Russian attacks across Ukraine kill at least 11 people

Governor says strike on Ukraine’s Zaporizhia region sets a service station on fire, killing at least nine people.

At least nine people have been killed in a Russian attack on Ukraine’s Zaporizhia region, its governor says.

Ivan Fedorov said the strike on Friday set a car garage and service station on fire.

“Nine dead and six wounded,” Fedorov said in a post on Telegram alongside images of a fire blazing with debris strewn across a street.

He added that two children, aged four and 11, were among those hurt.

The attack comes after weeks of escalation in the nearly three-year war in Ukraine, where Moscow has stepped up its strikes at the start of winter.
