One killed, 15 wounded in Russian attack on Ukrainian clinic - Zelenskyy

At least one person was killed and 15 wounded in a Russian missile strike on a clinic in the eastern Ukrainian city of Dnipro on May 26, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.

He denounced the attack as a crime against humanity, and the Ukrainian Defence Ministry called it a serious war crime under the Geneva Conventions, which set out how soldiers and civilians should be treated in war., Reuters reports.

Video footage showed a devastated building with smoke pouring out of it and rescue workers looking on. Much of the upper floor of what appeared to be a three-storey building had been badly damaged, as had cars parked nearby.

"Another (Russian) missile attack, another crime against humanity," Zelenskyy wrote on Twitter.

"The buildings of a psychological clinic and a veterinary clinic in the city of Dnipro were destroyed. As of now, one person was killed and 15 were wounded," he added.

Ukrainian officials said earlier on May 26 that air defences had shot down 10 missiles and more than 20 drones launched by Russia in overnight attacks on the capital Kyiv, Dnipro and eEastern regions.

Earlier, it was reported that strike drones and several S-300/C-400 antiaircraft missiles hit the Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk regions.
