Humberside fire engine used in Ukraine shopping centre blaze

A missile attack blamed on Russia, started the blaze in a busy shopping centre in the Ukrainian city of Kremenchuk, killing at least 11 people and injuring at least 50 on Monday.

There were images released onto social media, that show the engine being used by officials to fight the fire.

A UN spokesman described it as “deplorable to say the least”. UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of “cruelty and barbarism”.

Mr. Johnson was attending a G7 summit in Germany where he and the leaders of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the US pledged to support Ukraine “for as long as it takes” and told Russia it must allow free passage of food from Ukraine.

The British leader compared the war to defeating Nazi Germany in an interview with the BBC.

In their statement on social media they said: ” as a result of rocket fire, a shopping center in Kremenchuk was occupied. Rescuers are working on the spot.”
