At least Six People Killed in Russian Attack on Kharkiv, Ukraine
ai generated text
A Russian guided bomb attack on Kharkiv, Ukraine's northeastern city, resulted in significant damage and loss of life. The attack hit a residential building and a playground, killing at least six people, including a 14-year-old girl, and injuring 59 others, with 20 in severe condition. The 12-storey apartment block was engulfed in flames, with one end completely consumed by black smoke. The incident has led to renewed calls from President Volodymyr Zelensky for Ukraine's international partners to allow it to target locations inside Russia.
Occupiers killed a child right on the playground.
Unfortunately, the death toll has risen to six people.
One of the strikes damaged an educational institution in Kharkiv.
Let's say unequivocally that there were guidance systems [on the missiles]. We draw one conclusion.
These streets are exclusively parks with large gatherings of civilians. This is a residential building. This is, again, mass terror against our civilian population.
A strike ... would not have happened if our defence forces had the ability to destroy Russian military aircraft where they are based.
We need long-range capabilities and the full implementation of air defence agreements for Ukraine. These are life-saving measures.
There is no rational reason to restrict Ukraine's defences.
These horrific, cowardly Russian strikes targeted ordinary homes and a city park. Russia will be held accountable for all its evil deeds.
We need decisions – decisions that our partners can make, decisions from those countries that have the power to ensure we have the capability to destroy Russian military aircraft at their bases, where eliminating these terrorists and their aircraft will be most effective.
The most difficult situation remains in the Pokrovsk direction. The enemy is trying to break through the defences of our troops.
