At least five people have been killed in a Russian missile attack on residential buildings in the eastern Ukrainian town of Pokrovsk, officials say.
Four civilians and an official were killed, and 31 people were injured, interior minister Ihor Klymenko said.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said there were “victims” in the attack, but did not provide a figure.
Rescue efforts were continuing.
Pokrovsk lies about 70km (43 miles) north-west of Donetsk city, which is occupied by Russian forces. Before the war it had a population of around 60,000 people.
Mr Klymenko said the first strike killed four civilians, and that an official from the emergency services was killed in the second strike.
The injured included 19 police officers, five rescuers and a child, he said.
Mr Zelensky said the Russian attacks had struck an “ordinary residential building”, publishing a video of a five-storey building that had its top floor destroyed.
Amid scenes of general chaos and confusion it showed civilians clearing away rubble, and rescuers helping people into ambulances.
