Russia’s attack on an apartment building in Dnipro on Jan. 14 has killed 12 people, including a 15-year-old girl, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast Governor Valentyn Reznichenko reported.

Earlier, Reznicheno reported that 64 people were wounded due to the attack, 59 of which were hospitalized.

Russia hit the high-rise building in Dnipro with a Kh-22 missile, Ukraine’s Air Defense reported.

The rescue operation is ongoing.

The building was hit during Russia’s 10th mass missile strike against Ukraine’s critical infrastructure. The attack damaged energy facilities in six Ukrainian oblasts, according to the Energy Ministry, causing emergency power cut-offs.

In an address on Jan. 14, President Volodymyr Zelensky honored the memory of those killed in Russia’s latest attack on Dnipro.
