Firefighters tackled a blaze in Odesa on Monday (May 2) after a missile strike in the southern port city.
Video released by Ukraine's armed forces showed a blaze and smoke billowing from a damaged building.
A local resident said her family was already living in the basement of their building because the area had been hit before.
The windows of a nearby monastery were shattered.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said a 14-year-old boy was killed and a 17-year-old girl was wounded in the missile strike.
Zelenskiy said the missile hit a dormitory.
