Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky posted a clip of the explosion and resulting damage from the strike.
He slammed Russia as a “terrorist threat to the entire world”.
Zelensky said: “This shelter was built by Ukraine together with other countries of Europe and the world, together with America – all those committed to real security for humanity.

The President confirmed radiation levels had not increased but with “significant” damage to the shelter authorities were continuing to monitor the situation.
