Russian forces on Sunday bombarded the Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia, hammering apartment buildings and residential areas with a barrage of missiles, killing at least 17 and wounding scores more.
The overnight attack on Zaporizhzhia, the second deadly missile strike in three days, brought condemnation from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who called out Russia’s “merciless strikes on civilians.”
“The absolute meanness of all. Absolute evil,” he said on his Facebook page. ”From the one who gave this order, to everyone who carried out this order: they will answer. They must. Before the law and the people.”
Dmytro Kubela, Ukraine’s minister of foreign affairs, pleaded for help from Western nations to fight back against the Russian onslaught.
