🔴 Three children who died in Pryluky were only one year old, - Zelenskyy
As a result of a Russian strike on an apartment building in Pryluky, Chernihiv region, one-year-olds Oleksandr, Kyrylo and Serhii were killed, as well as eight-year-old Maksym.
This was reported by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Zelenskyy informed that the clearance of rubble at the site of the Russian missile strike on the apartment building in Pryluky is currently ongoing.
"At this time it is known that 18 people have died, and four of them are children: Oleksandr, Kyrylo and Serhii, who were only one year old, and eight-year-old Maksym. My condolences to all the relatives and loved ones. Dozens of people are wounded, including seven children. All emergency services are involved and working on site. Fifteen people have been rescued, including one child. There are people who have not yet made contact," the head of state said.
The president emphasized that the Russians know well that they are striking ordinary towns and ordinary lives.
"And the continued use of missiles against Ukraine, against our people, our children, is an absolutely deliberate choice of terror. This is precisely what Moscow chooses despite all our efforts with partners to bring peace closer," Zelenskyy said.
He called on international partners to increase pressure on Moscow and to step up defensive support for Ukraine.
