The body of a person killed by what Ukraine says was a Russian missile strike lies near a convoy of civilian vehicles in Zaporizhzhia on Friday. (Stringer via Reuters)KYIV: An attack on a frontline civilian convoy killed at least 25 people in southern Ukraine on Friday, just hours before Moscow was due to annex four occupied Ukrainian regions. “Twenty-five killed and about 50 wounded in an attack by the Russian military on a humanitarian convoy in Zaporizhzhia. It comes after Putin announced a draft to prop up Russian forces — leading to some protests and an exodus of men.
