KYIV: A Russian missile strike on a humanitarian demining mission near the northern Ukrainian city of Chernihiv killed two people, local officials said on Thursday.
Another three were wounded in the attack, which governor Viacheslav Chaus said purposely targeted a team from the Danish Refugee Council.
Russia, which regularly launches missiles and drones far behind the front line of its war in Ukraine, did not immediately comment on the strike.
