Russia-Ukraine conflict rages on its 602nd day.
Russia said its air defence had shot down two Ukrainian missiles headed for Moscow-annexed Crimea, adding that the attack did not cause casualties or destruction.
Five were killed in a missile strike that hit a residential building in the southeastern city of Zaporizhzhia, the local governor said, and one in a strike on a town just outside the city of Dnipro, Ukraine's internal affairs minister Igor Klymenko said.Russian President Vladimir Putin said it was a"mistake" for Washington to give Ukraine long-range ATACMS missiles, warning they would not affect the frontline and would prolong Ukraine's"agony".
The decision to supply the missiles had been"another mistake on the part of the United States," he said."It just prolongs the agony." "I can say for sure that this is the largest offensive that has ever taken place in Avdiivka since the war began in 2014," the head of the town's administration Vitaliy Barabash said on television.
Zelenskyy also commented on the attack on Telegram, saying it targeted a residential five-story building and destroyed eight apartments.
