Rocket attack on Ukraine's Chortkiv city injures 22 - regional governor

A rocket attack on the Western Ukrainian city of Chortkiv has partly destroyed a military facility and injured 22 people, the governor of the Ternopil region said in an online briefing on Sunday.

Volodymyr Trush said four missiles had hit the city, 75 kilometeres south of Ternopil, at 1846 GMT on Saturday.

"All missiles were from the Black Sea. A military facility and civilian facilities were partially destroyed. There are no casualties but we have injured - 22 people were hospitalised," Trush said, adding the injured included a 12-year-old child.

Four apartment buildings had been damaged, he said.
