An apparent Russian artillery strike hit a market in the southern Ukraine city of Kherson on Tuesday, killing at least six people and wounding three others, authorities said, on a morning when Ukrainians across the country were observing a minute’s silence for their military and war dead.


The strike happened as shoppers made their way between stalls at the city center market, regional Gov. Oleksandr Prokudin said.


He published a video showing the blurred corpses of people in civilian clothes lying near a stall with tomatoes and other vegetables.


Ukraine officials said the strike was “most likely” carried out by Russian artillery and hit close to a public transport stop.
