At least 11 people were killed in multiple strikes in a small town in the Donetsk region of Ukraine late Friday. The attack also damaged eight apartment blocks in the town of Dobrobia, close to the front lines where Russian troops have been steadily advancing.
Zelenskyy said there were at least five children in Dobropella's injury.
“Last night, Russian troops fired two ballistic missiles at the Dobropia Center,” he said. “After the emergency services arrived at the scene, they launched another strike, deliberately targeting rescuers. It was an evil and inhumane tactic of intimidation that Russians often resorted to.”
Officials said six more people were killed in the first-tier towns of Pokrovsk, Kostyantynivka, Myrnograd and Ivanopilya.

Mr. Trump's retired lieutenant Keith Kellogg, the special envoy of Ukrainian and Russian, told CBS News Says Ukrainians Stop Share “self” in US intelligence.
“It's kind of like hitting a son on the nose,” Kellogg said of the impact of intelligence on the battlefield. “It caught their attention.”
Although Kellogg said intelligence sharing could be restored, he refused to say when. He told CBS News chief foreign affairs reporter Margaret Brennan in an interview with the Foreign Relations Committee.
Mr. Trump proposed large-scale bank sanctions and tariffs on Russia until a ceasefire and a final peaceful settlement were reached.
Zelenskyy welcomed the prospect of additional sanctions on Moscow, saying: “All everything that helped Putin fund the war must be broken.”
The Ukrainian Air Force reported on Saturday that Russian troops fired three Iskander missiles and 145 drones in the country overnight. Bombing includes a mix of attack and bait drones, intended to confuse air defense. The Ukrainian Air Force said a missile and 79 drones were shot down, while another 54 drone losses were lost without causing damage.
Meanwhile, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Saturday that Russian troops shot down 31 Ukrainian drones overnight, including 26 in the country's Krasnodar region.
Local Governor Aleksandr Drozdenko said in a statement that debris from a drone caused a fire at the Kinef oil refinery in the Leningrad region of northern Russia. No casualties.
