Quote: “Russia launched another brutal attack on our Kharkiv – targeting a construction materials hypermarket – on Saturday, right in the middle of the day. As of now, we know that more than 200 people could have been inside the hypermarket.
All services are already working at the scene to rescue people and extinguish the fire that has completely consumed the 10,000 sq m building. There are reports of deaths and injuries.”
Details: Zelenskyy stressed that if Ukraine had sufficient air defence capabilities and modern combat aircraft, such Russian strikes would have been impossible.
“And that is why we appeal to all leaders, to all states: we need a significant strengthening of air defence and sufficient capabilities to destroy Russian terrorists. This is a task that must be accomplished and can only be done in cooperation with the world. Every day we call on the world: give us air defence, save people. Every decision not to support us is a loss of our people,” the Ukrainian President stated.
