A wave of at least 10 missile strikes hit Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia, setting homes and buildings on fire and injuring seven, including a child, as firefighters struggled to contain the damage.

Russian forces staged a massive attack early on Tuesday on Ukraine's southeastern city of Zaporizhzhia, killing one person, injuring seven and triggering a large number of fires, the regional governor said.

Ivan Fedorov said one child was among the injured. Pictures posted by the governor online showed firefighters battling blazes in private homes and other buildings.
