At least three people were killed and 15 injured following a Russian missile attack on the central Ukrainian city of Dnipro on Friday evening.

Regional governor Valentyn Reznychenko said the rockets hit an industrial plant and a busy street next to it.

Dnipro's Yuzhmash plant builds spacecraft, launch rockets, tractors, tools, and industrial products.

Early on Saturday, Russian rockets also hit a commercial warehouse in Odesa, damaging the warehouse and causing a massive fire.

Ukraine’s State Emergency Service said there were no casualties.

Kyiv says Moscow has intensified missile attacks on targets far from the frontline and that it has deliberately hit civilian sites. Russian forces have been grinding out gains on the battlefield in the east and pummelling urban areas with artillery.
