At least 10 people were killed and more than 40 wounded in Russian missile attack on a shopping center in the city of Kremenchuk in central Ukraine, Poltava Region Governor Dmitry Lunin said, warning that the death toll may rise.
"Ten people were killed and more than 40 people were wounded. This is the current situation in Kremenchuk due to the missile attack," Dmitry Lunin said.
UN and Britain condemned the attack
The United Nations has expressed concern over the intensifying fighting in Ukraine and the "reprehensible" attack on a shopping mall in the central Ukrainian city of Kremenchuk, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres' spokesman Stefan Duzarich said.
"Deplorable"
"It's deplorable, to say the least. Any kind of civilian infrastructure, which obviously includes shopping malls and civilians, should never be targeted," Duzaric told reporters.

Another act of the Russian genocide of the Ukrainian people. This time the ruscists targeted a mall in #Kremenchuk, in the afternoon when it is always especially crowded.

Boris Johnson condemned the Russian attack which the British Prime Minister said the British Prime Minister, demonstrates Vladimir Putin's "cruelty and brutality" and only serves to "reinforce the determination" of the West to support Kiev.
"This horrific attack has once again shown the depths of cruelty and barbarity into which the Russian leader is prepared to plunge," the British prime minister said in a statement.
"Putin must understand that his behaviour will reinforce the resolve of the UK and all other G7 countries to stand by Ukraine for as long as it takes," he added."
The Russian blow came on the second day of the G7 summit in southern Germany, which is largely dominated by the war started by Russia."
