The attacks were among the deadliest on Kryvyi Rih since the start of the war in 2022 and come as U.S. President Trump pushes for a ceasefire.

While Russian missile and drone bombardments have been unrelenting over more than three years of war, they have intensified in recent weeks amid U.S.-led peace talks.

Ukrainian officials say that a Russian missile strike Friday on the central city of Kryvyi Rih has killed at least 14 people, including six children, and injured more than 50.
