14 people killed, including 6 children: Russia launched a ballistic strike on a residential area of Kryvyi Rih near a children's playground.
Those who talk about peace are showing their true intentions to the world. Russia wants nothing but war.

As a result of the overnight Russian strike on Lviv, it is known that three people have been killed and 19 others injured.
Preliminarily, one of the victims is a 14-year-old girl. The strike targeted residential buildings.
After today's Russian missile attack on Lviv, the man in this photo is the only one who survived; his wife and three daughters tragically lost their lives in their own home.
💔
For those who claim that "it wasn’t a direct strike".
The rocket on the video was not hit by air defenses and was flying straight at the target, which is exactly the Ohmatdyt hospital below it.
Just look at this. These monstrosities do not care who to kill.
Ukraine desperately needs air defenses to save the lives of its people and children from absolutely ruthless russian terroristic attacks.

Today russia hit "Ohmatdyt" children’s hospital with a rocket.
The National Children's Specialized Hospital "Ohmatdyt" is the largest children's hospital in Ukraine, where more than 20,000 children from all over the country are treated every year.
Just minutes ago, russia has launched a rocket into the residential building in the center of Dnipro city, destroying the whole section from the very top to the bottom floors.
Civilian people lived in that building. There are reports of wounded.
Ukraine needs air defenses, and it needs them every single day! Our people and the lives of our people heavily rely on our partner's support.
A series of video recordings from cameras inside the Ukrainian home improving store, at the moment of russia’s strike.
Lots of civilian people walking around the store on the weekday.
Russia’s terrorism cannot be happening for a third year in a row, Ukraine critically needs the right and permission to hit military targets on Russia’s territory using ally-supplied weaponry to prevent even more casualties amongst innocent civilians.
This is a recording from a home improvement hypermarket in Kharkiv during a Russian air strike on Saturday afternoon.
At least 14 people were killed. The bodies of 7 people are still being searched for.
Overnight, Russia launched an attack on Ukrainian energy facilities, damaging power generation, transmission and distribution systems in various regions, including Ukraine's largest hydroelectric power plant, the Dnipro hydroelectric power plant in Zaporizhzhia.
Many towns and cities were partially or completely cut off from electricity.
Seems that Russians not had enough of the terrible disaster at the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant last year.
Ukraine needs weapons and air defense against Russian terrorism and genocide.
The criminal actions of russia on following points:
The violation of provision of Article 3. 35 of Chapter I, Part III of the Additional Protocol to the Geneva Conventions of August 12, 1949, Concerning the Protection of Victims of International Armed Conflicts Regarding the Prohibition of Methods or Means of Conduct of Military Actions Which Are Intended to Cause or Can Be Expected to Cause Widespread, Long-Term, and Serious Damage natural environment.
Such barbaric actions of the Russian Federation violate the basic principles and ideas that the civilized world developed for decades and enshrined in a number of international agreements, for example, in such as the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, Mainly as a Habitat for Waterfowl and the Convention on protection of wild flora and fauna and natural habitats in Europe. Such actions of the enemy once again demonstrate to the world community the absolute leveling of the Russian Federation against international norms, standards and rules.
Such criminal actions of the Russian military definitely and completely fall under the criminal law qualification under Art. 8 (2) (b) (iv) of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.
The consequences are:
- The impossibility of taking water necessary for cooling the Zaporizhzhya NPP, which outcomes as a threat to the nuclear safety of the world;
- A mass death of aquatic organisms (fish, molluscs, crustaceans, microorganisms, aquatic vegetation) with further disturbance of their habitat, including birds and other amphibians and animals;
- Significant risks for rodent populations, in particular endemic species and those listed in the Red Book of Ukraine;
- Disturbance of the habitats of plant complexes;
- Negative impact on water areas, coastal areas and the land part of three Ukrainian national nature parks - "Nizhnyodniprovskyi", "Kamyanska Sichi", "Biloberezhya Svyatoslav", Black Sea Biosphere Reserve (this territory also has the status of a UNESCO biosphere reserve), Regional landscape park "Kinburnska Kosa" and numerous objects of the nature reserve fund with smaller areas. All these territories also have the status of Wetlands of international importance, protected in accordance with the Ramsar Convention, and are also territories of the Emerald Network, protected in accordance with the Berne Convention;
- The pollution of the waters of the Dnipro and the Black Sea - primary pollution due to the ingress of fuel and lubricant materials into the waters, washing away of garbage, agrochemicals, other dangerous materials, flooding and failure of sewage treatment systems, sewage, and so-called "secondary pollution"
- A leaching, transfer of mines and other explosive substances, increase in mine danger;
These are only few major aftermath to come.
❗️The undermining of the Kakhovska HPP dam is not only one of the biggest ecological and humanitarian disasters in the east of Europe that led to the flooding of vast territories and many settlements, but is in fact the biggest crime against food security in the world.
The Kakhov reservoir was the heart of one of the largest irrigation systems in Europe. It was the southern regions of Ukraine that supplied the countries of the Middle East, Asia, Africa and Europe with wheat, corn, sunflower and sunflower oil, soybeans and soybean meal.
We call on everyone who cares about the fate of our planet and the environment, who declares their status as environmentalists and defines nature protection activities as their goals — to take all possible measures in order to record these violations, bring the culprits to justice, and make it impossible to commit such barbarism in the future.

The world and our planet will face catastrophic consequences if you choose inaction!
Tonight in Uman', in the heart of Ukraine, Russians shelled another residential building while people were sleeping. Nine were killed, including a preschooler, and 15 were wounded.
The same night, in another city, Dnipro, a young woman and a 3-year-old child were killed in another Russian strike.
If all this murdering and terrorism is not enough to drive Russia out of everywhere and stop doing business with it, I swear, I don't know what else has to happen to Ukraine and its people for the rest of the world to take action.
