This is the fatal moment when a Russian missile hit a shopping mall in Kremenchuk, Ukraine on Monday, June 27. Officials say at least 18 people were killed in the attack, dozens were injured and many more are missing.
Two missiles hit the area: one hitting the Amostor shopping center and the other hitting the nearby Kredmash car factory.
The missile can be seen flying directly towards the site before a large explosion occurs. Security cameras captured debris raining down on a public park as it hit the nearby shopping center and people dove for cover.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Monday that hundreds of people were inside the mall at the time of the attack. He said the site had no strategic value and posed no threat to Russian forces.
