A Ukrainian mother and her 3-month-old baby are among eight dead, following a Russian missile strike in Odesa, according to a report.
"She was a mom. She is no more. And neither is her 3 months old baby girl Kira," said Ukrainian parliament member Lesia Vaslenko, posting a photo of the deceased woman.
Eighteen others were injured and several buildings were destroyed in the Saturday attack. A number of other victims are believed to still be under the rubble, the Kyiv Independent reported.
