At least 21 people killed including boy, 12, in Russian missile strike on block of flats in Odesa | The Sun

A WAR crimes prosecutor surveys the rubble after a Russian missile attack on a block of flats that killed at least 21 people, including a boy of 12.

Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelensky condemned the “deliberately targeted terror” following the attack on Serhiivka near Black Sea port Odesa.

Residents in the resort village of Serhiivka helped recue workers pick through the rubble of the nine-storey block, hoping to find survivors.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov claims that Russia’s forces “do not work with civilian targets”.

But the strike on the residential block followed another last week on a shopping mall at Kremenchuk which killed 19.

Thousands of civilians have been killed since Russian forces swept into the country on Feb. 24 .
