Russia hits Ukraine energy facilities, apartment block killing three
Al Jazeera
Russia has relied increasingly on guided bombs dropped from a distance that involve fewer risks for its forces.
Russian guided bombs struck an apartment building in Ukraine’s second-largest city of Kharkiv, killing three people, wounding 29 and prompting President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to call for more help from Kyiv’s allies.
Pictures posted online showed parts of the building in ruins with windows smashed, balconies shattered and rubble strewn about a crater on the ground on Saturday.
Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko put the casualty toll at three dead and 29 injured in the mid-afternoon attack. Regional governor Oleh Syniehubov said two children were among the wounded and four of those hurt were in serious condition.
“This Russian terror through guided bombs must be stopped and can be stopped,” Zelenskyy wrote on Telegram. “We need strong decisions from our partners to enable us to stop the Russian terrorists and Russian military aviation right where they are.”
