Russian rocket hits Ukraine medical clinic

At least one person has died and 15 others have been injured in a missile strike on a hospital in Dnipro, in Ukraine's east.

The Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky, confirmed the attack and said authorities were working to rescue others from the hospital.

He said all necessary authorities were involved in the clean up mission.

Earlier, the regional governor, Serhiy Lysak, said the city had been attacked by rockets and drones.

Mr Zelensky posted a video of the damaged building that showed firefighters at the scene and smoke billowing from the building.

"Russian terrorists once again confirm their status of fighters against everything humane and honest," he said.

Ukrainian authorities said they shot down 17 missiles and 31 drones launched from Russia overnight.

Several drones and missiles hit targets in the eastern cities of Dnipro and Kharkiv, including an oil depot.

Russia has intensified its attacks on Ukraine in recent weeks, targeting its infrastructure facilities ahead of an expected Ukrainian counteroffensive.
