"A civilian enterprise caught fire as a result of the enemy strike," he said, adding that three women and four men had been hospitalised.
In the Russian-occupied part of the southern Zaporizhzhia region, Moscow-installed authorities said two civilians were killed in their car by a Ukrainian drone strike on the frontline town of Vasylivka.
"The danger of repeated strikes remains," Kremlin-appointed governor Yevgeny Balitsky said.
