One child was among the dead after a missile struck the market in what Ukraine officials are calling a 'terrorist attack.'

The Ukrainian government said Russian artillery was used on a market in the town of Kostiantynivka, killing 16 people at a local market. One of the deaths included a child, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.

Video of the incident showed people around the market running for cover after multiple blasts were seen. Government officials said rescue operations of local civilians are continuing. "The Secretary will address Ukraine’s energy, security, and humanitarian needs, and make announcements about how the United States can continue supporting Ukraine in these areas," the State Department said.
