- “More strikes by Russian drones on residential buildings in Kyiv,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, wrote on Telegram
KYIV: Ukraine on Tuesday slammed the lack of an “adequate reaction” from the world to Russia’s deadly strikes on its soil, after an attack on Kyiv killed at least 14 people.
“This is how Russia fights — it kills civilians in ordinary homes, deliberately,” Ukrainian presidential aide Andriy Yermak said in a social media post.
“This is how autocracies fight.... A nuclear power can simply kill civilians in homes, refuse to cease fire, and not receive the necessary reaction from the civilized world. Why? And how many more of our people and children must die?“
His comments came after one of the biggest attacks on the Ukrainian capital in the three-plus-year war killed at least 14 people and wounded dozens.
Some 27 locations in Kyiv were hit, including residential buildings, educational institutions and infrastructure, according to Interior Minister Igor Klymenko.
Moscow has kept up its attacks on Ukraine despite efforts by the United States to broker a ceasefire.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy had been hoping to speak with his US counterpart Donald Trump on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Canada, but the US leader cut short his stay as Israel pounded Iran.
