On the other side, in Russia’s southern Krasnodar region, authorities said two children were killed and two adults wounded in a Ukrainian drone strike.
The latest attacks coincided with ongoing rescue operations in Kryvyi Rih, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s hometown, where emergency workers searched the charred wreckage of the Sunny Gallery shopping complex following Friday afternoon’s assault.
Oleksandr Vilkul, head of the Kryvyi Rih Defense Council, said Russian forces targeted the city’s largest shopping centre with jet-powered Shahed drones.
A second wave hit roughly 30 minutes after the first on Friday, allegedly targeting emergency crews responding to the scene.
Dnipropetrovsk regional governor Oleksandr Hanzha confirmed in an update on Saturday morning that the death toll in Kryvyi Rih had risen to 16, with more than 130 wounded, including 22 children.
Al Jazeera’s Audrey MacAlpine, reporting from Kyiv, said Friday’s attack began “at 4:30 in the afternoon when the mall is typically crowded,” with a second wave following “just 30 minutes later, with rescue workers from nearby regions called in to help”.
