Serhiy Lysak said a restaurant complex and several residential buildings were ablaze after the attack late on Friday.

He added that "the enemy sent more than 20 drones" to the city, and that "most of them were shot down".

Images and videos later emerged showing firefighters tackling large fires that had engulfed the buildings that were struck, and smashed glass and other debris scattered on the city streets.

Overnight, air sirens were heard sounding in several other Ukrainian regions, including the capital, Kyiv. It was not immediately clear whether there were any casualties.
