WorldZelenskyy claims overnight Russian strikes on Ukraine used North Korean missiles – Europe live

Officials said overnight Russian attacks on the southeastern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia killed at least six people and wounded 20. Reuters reported that strikes in Dnipropetrovsk and Donetsk also left six people dead and 16 injured. Volodymyr Zelenskyy claimed that Zaporizhzhia was hit by North Korean ballistic missiles, Zircon missiles and guided aerial bombs. He argued that Russia’s expanding ballistic-missile production, use of North Korean equipment and preparations for mobilisation show Moscow is preparing for escalation rather than peace, and urged the world to respond immediately.
