At least 15 people have been killed in two Russian drone strikes on a shopping centre in the central Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih, according to local officials have said.

Another 130 people – including 23 children – were injured in the city’s biggest mall.

The shopping mall is in President Volodymyr Zelensky’s home town. He called it “absolutely cynical and despicable”. Ukrainian authorities said a second drone struck the building, targeting emergency workers at the scene.

Dramatic footage verified by the BBC appears to show the second drone hitting the burning shopping centre in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

Ukraine has in recent months carried out attacks on warehouses of Russia’s largest online retailer Wildberries.

Its latest strikes targeted an oil refinery and a military airfield deep inside Russia. Ukraine has been systematically targeting Russia’s energy supplies, leading to severe petrol shortages. Russia’s President Putin has admitted the attacks are damaging the country’s economy.

Russia is warning of increasing tension with the UK, following its decision to give Ukraine blueprints to build more effective long-range missiles.

The British Prime Minister Andy Burnham visited Kyiv, on the anniversary of its independence from the former Soviet Union, to had over the previously classified details of components used to construct cruise missiles. The information will help Ukraine manufacture its own versions of the Storm Shadow missile.

Mr Burnham compared Ukraine’s fight against Russia to the battle to defeat Nazi Germany, and pledged continuing British support.

President Putin’s spokesman Dmity Peskov said the UK was involved in the war on the side of Ukraine. He said British actions were adding “fuel to the fire” and accused the UK of deliberately sabotaging any progress towards a peace settlement.

A fresh wave of US tariffs on a wide array of Canadian goods came into effect on Saturday after a last-minute breakdown in trade talks.

Announcing the suspension of negotiations shortly before the Friday night deadline, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said he would impose reciprocal tariffs on US goods “dollar for dollar” and that “last-minute changes in the US proposed terms were unfair, uneconomic, and called into question the reliability of any deal”.

US President Donald Trump had temporarily paused those tariffs earlier in the week, saying the two sides were close to signing a trade deal that was “very good” for both countries.

But minutes before the deadline for a deal, Carney said that while “important progress” had been made in the talks it was “not enough to meet our objectives for Canadians”.

The former Ukraine defence minister Mykhailo Fedorov has told the BBC he stands by his call for nationwide elections even though the country is at war.

Fedorov, a popular minister who modernised the military and pioneered drone warfare, was fired last month after reportedly falling out with the head of Ukraine’s armed forces.

In a video released online earlier in the week, he said “democracy should not be the hostage of Putin” and accused individuals in the government of corruption.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says he believes wartime elections would currently be too dangerous for Ukraine in remarks released on Sunday.

When Trump Mobile was launched by President Trump’s eldest sons in the summer of 2025, the company advertised that a “T1” smartphone would be built in the USA and shipped to customers within months.

Over the last year, key details about the phone’s manufacture, design and delivery date have changed, and some customers are still waiting for their phones – as Thomas Copeland explains.
