At least 20 people, including one child, have died in overnight Russian missile strikes on Ukraine’s southern Odesa region, Ukrainian officials say.
The state emergency service, DSNS, says 16 people were killed in a nine-storey building hit by one missile in the village of Serhiyivka.
Another four people, including the child, were killed in a separate strike on a holiday resort in the village.
Russia has fired dozens of missiles on Ukrainian cities in the past few days.
Last evening Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov again denied that Russia was hitting civilian targets.
It released footage showing firefighters searching for survivors in the wreckage of the nine-storey building. END.
