Russian missile strike kills family of ten in Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine

Russian missile attack family killed Kryvyi Rih North Korean missile Ukraine civilian casualties

Russian night missile and drone attacks across Ukraine killed at least eight civilians in several cities. In the village of Radushne near Kryvyi Rih, a single missile strike destroyed a house, killing ten members of the Voronov family – parents Artem and Olena, their seven children and a one‑year‑old nephew. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the projectile was a North Korean‑made ballistic missile (KN‑23 or KN‑24), marking a possible new supply line for Moscow.

Ukrainian air defenses reported shooting down 55 missiles and 265 drones, but only one of nine ballistic missiles was intercepted. Rescue teams worked among the rubble to recover survivors, including two younger children rescued alive in a separate incident. The United Nations Secretary‑General condemned the attacks as violations of international humanitarian law, and UNICEF confirmed that at least three children were killed in the raids. The International Atomic Energy Agency warned that heightened military activity near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant is complicating safety efforts.
