Nine people, including two children, remain missing after Russian drones struck a crowded shopping mall in Kryvyi Rih, as rescuers worked through the night searching the wreckage of an attack that has already killed at least 16 people. Oleksandr Hanzha, head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, said early Saturday that nine people were preliminarily listed as missing while emergency crews continued dismantling the ruins of the shopping center.JOIN US ON TELEGRAMFollow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official. Two of those unaccounted for are children. The search continued hours after firefighters extinguished a massive blaze at the mall. At least 130 people were injured in Friday’s attack, including 23 children. Twenty-nine people, five of them children, were reported in serious condition. Rescuers later recovered the body of another woman from beneath the rubble, raising the confirmed death toll to 16. The attack unfolded in two waves at one of Kryvyi Rih’s largest shopping centers. Russian drones first hit the building in the afternoon, setting shops ablaze. A second strike followed roughly half an hour later, after emergency workers had arrived at the scene. President Volodymyr Zelensky, who was born in Kryvyi Rih, called the attack deliberate and said authorities were still trying to establish the whereabouts of everyone who may have been inside. “An absolute Russian atrocity,” Zelensky said, adding: “We will definitely respond.”
