10 Killed, 20 Injured In Russia's Strikes On Ukraine

10 people were killed and 20 others wounded in Russian strikes across Ukraine on Friday.

Ukraine’s presidential office said the strikes come after a senior Russia official warned that the Russian forces were prepared for an Ukrainian counteroffensive in the coming weeks.

The attacks hit Kostiantynivka, a town in eastern Ukraine's Donetsk province.

Prosecutors said the Russians attacked Kostyantynivka with S-300 anti-aircraft missiles.

The civilians who died were refugees, according to Donetsk Gov. Pavlo Kyrylenko.

Russian forces also used air-launched missiles, exploding drones and gliding bombs in their attacks on Friday, Ukrainian air force spokesman Yurii Ihnat said.

Sumy province, town of Bilopillia was also attacked by a rocket and artillery barrage and air strikes.

In the southern Kherson region, which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited on Thursday, Russian shelling also struck the place.
