Volodymyr Zelenskiy says about 1,000 civilians were inside the centre in the city of Kremenchuk at the time

A Russian missile strike has hit a crowded shopping centre in the central Ukrainian city of Kremenchuk, killing at least 10 people and wounding 40, a senior Ukrainian official has said.

He wrote: “The occupiers fired missiles at the shopping centre, where there were more than a thousand civilians. The mall is on fire, rescuers are extinguishing the fire, the number of victims is unimaginable. Russia continues to take out its impotence on ordinary citizens. It is useless to hope for decency and humanity from Russia.”

Kremenchuk is the site of Ukraine’s biggest oil refinery and stands on the banks of the Dnieper River. The city serves as the administrative centre of the Kremenchuk district in Poltava oblast.The attack came on the day of awhere leaders discussed ways to punish Moscow for its invasion and pledged to stand with Ukraine “for as long as it takes”.
