A Russian attack killed at least 19 people in the Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih on Friday, local officials said, but Russia's Defense Ministry said it targeted a military gathering.
The area is President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's hometown with the regional governor saying a missile hit residential areas, killing 18, and sparked fires. One person died when Russian drones attacked homes, added the city's military administrator.
Russia's Defense Ministry said a "high-precision strike" had targeted "a meeting of unit commanders and Western instructors" in a restaurant.
"As a result of the strike, enemy losses total up to 85 servicemen and officers of foreign countries, as well as up to 20 vehicles," the ministry said on Telegram.

U.S. President Donald Trump has tried to broker an end to the conflict with the U.S. saying last week it had agreed with Russia and Ukraine two ceasefire accords, including one that would halt strikes on each other's energy infrastructure.
Friday's strike was one of Moscow's deadliest this year in the conflict. At least 50 people were wounded, with over 30 in hospital, including a three-month-old baby.
The General Staff of Ukraine's military said the attack showed that Russia "is in no way seeking peace, but rather intends to continue its invasion and war to destroy Ukraine and all Ukrainians."

In his nightly video address, Zelenskyy called on the West to exert greater pressure on Moscow.
On Friday, each side accused the other again of flouting the energy-infrastructure ceasefire.
Russia's Defense Ministry has accused Ukraine of attacking Russian energy facilities six times in the past 24 hours.
Zelenskyy said Russia had launched a drone attack on a thermal power plant in Ukraine's city of Kherson on Friday.
