Aftermath of Russian bombing in central Ukrainian city that killed at least 17

Footage circulating on social media purports to show the aftermath of Russian strike in Vinnytsia, Ukraine.

At least 17 people, including a child, have been killed in the bombing, authorities said.

Civilian buildings and a cultural centre - in the heart of the central Ukrainian city - were hit.
