Ukrainian strike on enterprise in Russia's Oryol kills three, governor says


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."
