Russia Attacks Ukraine Again With Missiles
Russia launched a new drone and missile strike in an overnight attack on Ukraine on Saturday, targeting the western region of the country. The attack killed two people in the Romanian city of Chernivtsi.
Cities in western Ukraine, Lviv, Lutsk, and Chernivtsi, were most affected by Russian attacks, while other Ukrainian territories were also affected, Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha said.
"Russia continues to increase its terror, launching a series of hundreds of drones and missiles, destroying settlements, killing and injuring civilians," Sybiha said.
Russian warships produce hundreds of terror tools every day. The scale poses a threat not only to Ukraine, but also to the entire transatlantic community," he continued.
