Russian drone, missile attack causes damage and fires in Ukraine

The attack came as President Volodymyr Zelenskiy warned on Monday of an imminent, mass Russian attack on the country, citing Ukrainian intelligence.

One person was killed and five injured in a drone and missile strike on the city of Zaporizhzhia in southeastern Ukraine, the regional governor said on the Telegram messaging app.

"Russia launched a massive combined strike on Zaporizhzhia using drones and missiles," Governor Ivan Fedorov said.

Fedorov also reported that six apartment buildings, two private houses, a store, non-residential buildings as well as an industrial infrastructure facility in Zaporizhzhia were damaged in the attack.

He posted pictures on Telegram showing firefighters putting out a fire in a high-rise building and of a smaller building engulfed in flames.

Two people were killed and 11 injured in the attack in the eastern Poltava region, the regional governor said, adding that residential buildings and a hotel were damaged.

A Russian drone attack on an electric train in Ukraine's northeastern Kharkiv region killed a 61-year-old passenger, local prosecutors said on Tuesday.

According to preliminary information, a Russian first-person-view drone (FPV) struck a carriage of the train that was at a station in a village of Slatyne at the time, the Kharkiv regional prosecutor's office said on Telegram.
