Death toll in Russia's strike in Dnipro rises to 40, more than 30 other civilians remain unaccounted. Here is an overview of some of the deadliest attacks on Ukrainian civilians over the last 11 months
More than 30 people remain unaccounted for in the Dnipro attack on January 14 that also wounded 75 people, including 14 children.
An apartment building in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro was hit during a major Russian missile attack, killing at least 40 people, one of the highest civilian tolls in a single strike since Moscow has started its operation in Ukraine in February 2022. Ukraine's Air Force said Russia hit the building on January 14 with a Soviet-era Kh-22, a model of missile that Kiev says is inaccurate and one it lacks the air defences to shoot down.
The Kremlin denies intentionally targeting civilians and says the incident in Dnipro was caused by Ukrainian air defences. More than 30 people remain unaccounted for in the strike that also wounded 75 people, including 14 children.READ MORE:A drama theatre where Kyiv says hundreds of people had been sheltering in the southern Ukrainian city of Mariupol that was besieged by Russian forces was bombed on March 16 in one of the most shocking moments of the war.
