The request for a ceasefire is simply a cynical play by Moscow," stated the president of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenski just after Ukraine was one more time bombed by Russia. This coincided with Putin's announcement of a two-day truce.
The attacks were aimed, among others, at energy facilities in central and east Ukraine. In 1 of them, according to the Kiev authorities, the rocket fell during a rescue — 4 people were killed, including 2 rescuers, and dozens were injured. Fire has besides affected another regions of the country, causing further casualties and demolition of infrastructure.
Ukrainian air force reports that Russia utilized respective rockets and over 160 drones in the last wave. Most drones managed to shoot down, but any of the missiles and their debris hit their targets.
In Zelenski's opinion, Moscow can end the war at any time – instead, it proposes a brief truce for the celebration of the russian Union's triumph over the 3rd Reich, while continuing rocket and drone attacks. The president of Ukraine announced that the Ukrainian consequence would be "symmetrical".
