Details: Ivanytsia said none of the store's employees were injured. He described the strike on the shopping centre as targeted and deliberate.

"But there is little comfort in that. More than a hundred people have been injured, there are fatalities, including children. There are no words. Simply no words. In the middle of the day. An entirely civilian facility," Ivanytsia wrote.

Background: On 21 August, Russian forces attacked a shopping centre in Kryvyi Rih with a double-tap drone strike, killing 14 people and injuring 121 others, including 22 children.
