‘Terrible beyond words’: Ukraine residents describe mall strike


Kremenchuk (Ukraine) (AFP) – “It’s terrible beyond words. How many people were there. Rush hour, people were returning from work,” says a Kremenchuk resident. Dozens were injured and many are still missing after the strike set off a blaze inside a shopping centre in Kremenchuk on Monday. The Russian army claimed Tuesday it had hit a nearby weapons depot with the explosion sparking the blaze at the shopping centre, which according to Moscow was “not operational” at the time.
