Local authorities say the number of people killed in a Russian rocket attack on a TV tower in western Ukraine has risen to 19.
The Rivne regional government posted on its Facebook page Tuesday that 19 people were killed and nine were injured in the strike on the TV tower in Antopol, a village outside the city of Rivne.
The village is only about 160 kilometres (100 miles) from the border of NATO member Poland and comes as Russia presses its invasion of Ukraine.
Initial casualty reports had put the death toll from Monday’s TV tower attack at nine.
