Reaction of the President of Ukraine
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy reacted to the attack, calling it another terrorist act:
“Each such terrorist attack is another reminder of who we are dealing with. Russia does not stop on its own – it can only be stopped by joint pressure. The pressure of everyone in the world who values life,” Zelensky wrote in a telegram.
The President clarified that the Russian army had struck with ballistic missiles, causing significant destruction.
“Residential buildings, an educational institution, and other urban infrastructure were damaged. Unfortunately, there are victims. My condolences to the families and friends of the victims,” he said.
This incident has once again emphasized the importance of international pressure on Russia to stop its terrorist actions. The Ukrainian government calls for tougher sanctions and support for the country in countering the aggressor.
