Oct 23 (Reuters) – Three people were killed in a Ukrainian missile ​attack on a ‌facility in the central Russian city of Oryol, regional Governor Andrei Klychkov ‌said.

Klychkov ​did not ⁠identify the site ⁠that was hit on Friday, but said the attack caused a fire ​and that the bodies of all ⁠three victims ⁠were recovered from ​the rubble.

“Yet another enemy ​missile attack on a civilian ‌target. This time, an enterprise was damaged in the Soviet ⁠district of the city of Oryol,” Klychkov wrote on the ⁠Max ‌messenger app.

“This was ⁠particularly cynical as ​the ‌attack occurred at ​rush hour, ⁠when people were leaving work to head home to their families.”
