A Russian missile struck a hotel in

the central Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih late on Wednesday,

killing two people and injuring seven, emergency officials said.



Ukraine's Emergency Services, posting on the Telegram

messaging app, also said 14 people had been rescued from the

rubble of the building.



They posted pictures of crews making their way through

piles of rubble outside the hotel, one section of which was

badly damaged. A crane was deployed to reach upper levels of the

building.



Oleksandr Vilkul, head of the city's military

administration, wrote on Telegram that the missile had made a

direct hit on the building, triggering a fire.



He said more people could still be trapped under rubble

and warned a new Russian strike was possible in the same area.



Kryvyi Rih, home town of Ukrainian President Volodymyr

Zelenskiy, has been a frequent target of Russian attacks in the

three-year-old war pitting Kyiv against Moscow.
