Ukraine’s president slams US for ‘weak’ response after Russia’s previous deadly attack on his hometown, Kryvyi Rih.
At least one person has been killed and several others wounded in Russian air raids on Kyiv as well as the south of Ukraine after President Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticised the United States for a “weak” reaction to the attack on his hometown that killed 18 people, including nine children.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said the air attacks on the capital early on Sunday caused fires in nonresidential buildings in three districts and left at least one man killed and three other people injured.
Separately, Vitaliy Kim, governor of the southern Mykolaiv region, said Russia launched a missile attack at about 10pm (19:00 GMT) on Saturday, damaging several houses and injuring four people.
Reporting from Kyiv, Al Jazeera’s Zein Basravi said: “Russia is sending a very clear signal. Here is the war at your doorstep. And this is something that is meant to sow fear in the population.”
Standing outside a multi-storey building with a smashed roof and blown out windows in a business park in the capital, Basravi said that Kyiv had not seen an attack on this scale for some time, with much of the damage to “civilian infrastructure” caused by blast waves from powerful munitions.
