Ukraine launched a massive missile attack involving Tochka ballistic missiles.

At least 15 people were killed and 20 injured on Sunday when a section of a Russian apartment block collapsed after being struck by fragments of a Soviet-era missile, launched by Ukraine and shot down by Russia, Russian officials said.

Russia’s defence ministry said the attack, which it called a “terrorist attack on residential areas”, took place at 0840 GMT and involved at least 12 missiles. Both Ukraine and Russia say they do not target civilians, which Russia launched at its smaller neighbour in February of 2022.The Kremlin said President Vladimir Putin had been briefed on the attack, which it said was “barbaric”. Russia’s foreign ministry said the targeting of civilians and civilian infrastructure was criminal.

Russian troops on Sunday said they seized another four villages – Hatyshche, Krasne, Morokhovets and Oliinykove – in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region.
