Search and rescue teams are digging for those who remain trapped beneath the rubble of a shopping centre in the central Ukrainian city of Kremenchuk after the building was hit by a Russian missile on Monday.
Ukraine’s president, Volodoymyr Zelenskiy, said more than 1,000 people were inside the building at the time of the strike. Images from the scene showed giant plumes of black smoke and flames, with emergency crews rushing in to search for victims and put out fires.
