This morning, the Russians launched a brutal attack on a busy intersection in Pechenihy, Kharkiv region – a location with a post office and stores, surrounded only by residential buildings.
As of now, 10 people have been reported killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Many people have been injured and are receiving all necessary medical care. First responders have already extinguished the fire, and all emergency and response services continue working at the site. All the circumstances of this tragedy are being established.
We will definitely respond to this Russian strike. And it is equally important that our partners also complement our just kinetic responses with their own actions to put pressure on Russia and support Ukraine.
July was the deadliest month for civilians in Ukraine in at least 2.5 years.
russia killed at least 634 civilians and wounded another 4,590.
634 lives. In one month.
Why does the world still refuse to call this terrorism?
What are you waiting for?
Più della metà degli abitanti civili ucraini ammazzati dai nazisti russi stanotte sono morti mentre aspettavano il treno nella stazione del villaggio di Kvitneve, nella regione di Kyiv. Le immagini sono talmente cruente che sono state pubblicate solo censurate.
Il ministero della "difesa" dei nazisti ha già rivendicato ufficialmente tali atti di terrorismo su larga scala.
L'inerzia dell'Europa è una catastrofe: non è sufficiente non negoziare con il nazismo (seppur cosa importante), ma va combattuto attivamente.
Today, many were shocked by yet another video of the drone “safari” Russians are carrying out against civilians in Kherson. A Russian drone deliberately hunted down a man selling vegetables and detonated right next to him. The Russians even admitted to the crime, showing zero regret and openly boasting about tormenting people. The man was wounded in the blast. Every single day, ordinary people in Kherson face these Russian "safaris."
The world must see this. It must see every piece of evidence that Russia has gone mad and that its soldiers take pleasure in killing and abusing civilians. Without pressure on Russia, the dismantling of its capacity for aggression, and real security guarantees, it is simply impossible to imagine the world being able to coexist with this evil. We must remain resolute in defending life. We must act and support life in ways that force Russia to seriously think about peace rather than expanding the range of its drones.
This is not just about Ukraine. Russia’s campaign against human life must be stopped here in Ukraine before it spreads further. Finland and Kazakhstan, the Baltic states and Poland, the countries of the South Caucasus, Romania, and Moldova—all should work together to ensure real security guarantees and bring Russia’s war to an end. Peace is needed, which requires cooperation among everyone in the world who truly values peace. Thank you to everyone standing with Ukraine!
Today, the Russians used their ballistic missile to destroy an ordinary house belonging to an ordinary family in Radushne, near Kryvyi Rih, in our Dnipro region. It was the Voronov family: mother Olena, father Artem, seven children – Mark, Dominika, Zakharii, Azarii Ilai, Federica, Emilia, and Viorika – and one-and-a-half-year-old grandson Artem, the child of their eldest son, who is now defending Ukraine. As of now, it has been confirmed that parents and three children – Mark, Azarii Ilai, and Emilia – were killed. The Russian missile struck with such force that almost nothing was left of the house… Fragments of human bodies were found under the rubble, and only forensic examinations can establish which members of the family they belong to. The fate of Zakharii, Dominika, Viorika, Federica, and Artem is still being determined… It is a horrific crime of Russia’s war against Ukraine – against ordinary people, against ordinary life.
This Russian evil can only be stopped by the whole world. No one in the world can be left to face such terror alone. And when we say that Ukraine needs missiles for Patriots, when we seek the capabilities to defend ourselves against Russian ballistic missiles, this isn’t about abstractions. We are talking about families like this, people like these, who can live if we have the means to shoot down Russian missiles – if our partners help us with interceptors. Families who can be killed if we have nothing to stop Russian Iskanders with.
It is important that these people are seen by those who make decisions – decisions at the Pentagon, in European capitals, and everywhere in the world where there is an opportunity to help Ukraine protect lives. Reality speaks for itself. Protecting lives is necessary. Air defense missiles are necessary.
Eternal memory to all Ukrainians who were killed by Russian strikes… Eternal gratitude to everyone who helps!
One of the defenders of Mariupol, now a prisoner of war, during a trial in russia. I’ve seen similar images from Auschwitz – this is how the Nazis treated their prisoners.
Since the start of the day, russian terrorists have continued killing civilians across Ukraine.
💔 Odesa — 6 killed
💔 Sumy — 5 killed
💔 Sloviansk — 1 killed
Twelve civilians murdered in a single day.
I keep hoping tomorrow will be better.
But I know it won't be.
THIS is what 🇷🇺 russians do.
They bomb 🇺🇦 civilians in broad daylight, leaving mothers to throw themselves on top of their children in the hope of taking the blast, the shrapnel from russian rockets.
Ukraine puts its children before all, russia targets them first.
Fuck russia.
Two years ago, russians hit a children’s hospital in Kyiv. It was one of the worst evils done by russians - to take away the lives of children with cancer who are already dying.
This russian evil must be stopped at any cost.
russia murdered her today.
Ulyana was only 13 years old.
She was killed near a bus stop.
She wasn't a soldier.
She wasn't a threat.
She was a child.
Remember her name.
The world owes her justice.
This photo must be seen by the entire world so people understand what Russia truly is.
A mother is holding her child as tightly as she can, trying to shield them with her own body while Russia drops guided аerial bоmbs on Sumy.
No child should grow up in a reality like this. No mother should have to become a human shield to protect her child.
💔 Kramatorsk. I have no words left. A 14-year-old boy and his 19-year-old sister.
What did they do? What was their crime? Was their only crime being Ukrainians in their own home?
If this doesn't make you hate russia, nothing will.
D: Ti manca essere un attore?
Zelensky: Mi manca essere un buon padre.
D: Quando i tuoi figli erano piccoli, cosa gli dicevi più spesso?
Zelensky: Vi voglio bene.
D: E cosa gli dici ora che sono più grandi?
Zelensky: Mi mancate.
