A Russian missile smashed into a hotel in the central Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih late on Wednesday, killing two people and injuring 28, the regional governor said.
\nSerhiy Lysak, governor of Dnipropetrovsk region, said on the Telegram messaging app that a child was among the injured. Several people were seriously hurt, he said.
\nUkraine\u2019s Emergency Services, also posting on Telegram, said 14 people had been rescued from rubble at the hotel which suffered heavy damage.
\nThey posted pictures of crews making their way through piles of rubble outside the floodlit five-story building and clambering up and down ladders.
\nSmoke billowed from the top of the hotel and virtually all its windows had been blown out. A crane was deployed to reach upper levels.
\nOleksandr Vilkul, head of the city\u2019s military administration, said rescue operations proceeded through the night.
\nKryvyi Rih, home town of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, has been a frequent target since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine three years ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
