Kyiv, the Kyiv region, and 11 other areas have come under attack by the Russian Armed Forces. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced this.
"Buildings, hostels, and enterprises have been damaged. Among the dead and wounded are children. The silence of the United States and the world only encourages Putin," he said.
According to Zelensky, each such attack is a sufficient reason for new sanctions against Russia.
"Russia is prolonging this war and continues to kill every day. The world may rest on weekends, but the battle continues regardless of weekends and weekdays. This cannot be ignored.
Without extreme pressure on the Russian leadership, this cruelty will not stop. Sanctions will help. Now, it is essential to be decisive—the decisiveness of the United States, European countries, and all those who want peace. The world knows all the weaknesses of the Russian economy. It is possible to stop the war, but only by applying the necessary pressure on Russia. "Putin must be forced to think not about launching missiles but about ending the war," he stated.
