KYIV: A Russian ballistic missile strike in Ukraine’s Kyiv region on Friday killed 10 people and injured close to 100 at the site of a defence industry event that President Volodymyr Zelensky said should never have taken place.

Ukraine’s emergency service said its crews had completed rescue operations at the site north of the capital.

Pictures posted online by the emergency service showed teams sifting through piles of rubble at the site, adjacent to several houses.

“Of course, the cause of this attack is Russian missiles, nothing but Russian terror,” Zelensky said in his nightly video address.
