hit the center of Chernihiv. People had been on their way to church to celebrate a religious holiday when the strike took place, the ministry said, adding 11 of the wounded were children. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the strike, saying it hit a theater and a University. Zelenskyy is in Sweden for talks with Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson.
