KYIV, Ukraine — Ukrainian emergency authorities reported that Russian bombing killed 26 people Monday in a village in the southeastern Zaporizhzhia region.

Reports described an aid center and nearby shelter among the places struck. Earlier accounts gave lower casualty totals before the reported toll rose.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the attack and said it showed Moscow was not pursuing de-escalation.

The reported civilian losses came as diplomatic efforts continued separately. Casualty figures in an active rescue operation can change as authorities account for victims.
