Russia launched a dangerous attack on Ukraine, Zelensky said – the attack was deliberate.
Trump And Zelenskyy Meeting
Trump and Zelensky Meeting: Russia has once again targeted Ukraine before the meeting between Ukrainian President Zelensky and US President Donald Trump in Washington.
The Ukrainian President himself gave information about this on social media. Zelensky, while releasing a video, wrote that Russia deliberately attacked before the discussion on the issue of peace in Washington. We will discuss this issue with President Trump.
The leaders of Ukraine, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Finland, EU and NATO will participate in this meeting. But even before this meeting, Russia has started attacking the cities of Kharkiv, Zaporizhia, Sumy and Odessa in Ukraine. It is damaging homes and public property.
10 people killed in drone attack
Zelensky further said that seven people were killed in a drone strike in Kharkiv, including a one-and-a-half-year-old girl. Three people were killed and 20 injured in a missile strike in Zaporizhia.
My condolences go out to the families and loved ones of all the victims. An energy center in Odessa was attacked. Which is an Azerbaijani company.
Trump and Zelensky Meeting :Russia is deliberately targeting people, especially children. Putin is carrying out these attacks to increase pressure and undermine political efforts. We need help. So that we can stop the attacks. Russia should not be rewarded for the war. The war must end.
Це був абсолютно показовий і цинічний російський удар. Вони знають, що сьогодні у Вашингтоні зустріч для припинення війни.
