Russian Missiles Hit Two Buildings in Eastern Ukraine

A large residential tower block and a building belonging to Ukraine's security services (SBU) were damaged. The top floor of the residential building was almost entirely destroyed. President Zelensky condemned the attack as 'Russian missile terror' and convened emergency meetings. Russia claimed its defence forces intercepted two Ukrainian missiles over the Rostov region, with debris injuring 15 people in Taganrog. Russian President Putin stated he is ready for peace negotiations but requires Ukraine to relinquish control of roughly 20% of its territory occupied by Russia.
