President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Wednesday that he visited military positions near the frontline town of Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine, as a Russian strike battered a residential building, injuring dozens.
At least one person was killed and 32 more injured in the block of flats in Zaporizhzhia, a city near the frontline, just before Zelenskyy announced his visit to the front, the mayor said. And officials announced the death toll from a separate overnight drone attack by Russia on a school south of the capital Kyiv had risen to seven, with another nine injured.
'There is a lot livelier than here. Our company was withdrawn so we can have a day to get washed and await orders,' he told AFP. An aide to the Russian-appointed head of the eastern Donetsk region in Ukraine said Wednesday that Moscow's forces were close to cutting off Kyiv's road links to the city.
