Five people have been killed in a Russian strike on a law school known locally as the “Harry Potter castle” in the southern Ukrainian port of Odesa, local officials said.
At least 32 others were injured in Monday’s attack, with 23 of them still in hospital on Tuesday.
A four-year-old child among eight seriously injured in the attack, which Odesa mayor says was carried out by ‘beasts’ and ‘savages’
Footage showed the roof of the ornate building, a private law academy, all but destroyed as firefighters battled the flames.
The building is also reported to be the residence of former MP Serhiy Kivalov, who runs the law academy. Mr Kivalov was believed to have been wounded in the strike, according to Ukrainian media.
