Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky slammed Russia as an “evil state” for striking civilian targets amid Moscow’s bombardment of the eastern city of Sloviansk, where 11 people, including a 2-year-old boy, were killed and rescue crews are frantically scrambling to reach people in the rubble.
“The evil state once again demonstrates its essence,” Zelensky said in a posting on social media. “Just killing people in broad daylight. Ruining, destroying all life.”
The Ukrainian president’s comments were in reaction to Russia’s missile attack Friday on a block of apartment buildings in Sloviansk.
The death toll increased Saturday to 11 from 8, including the young boy who died after being found in from the debris.
“A little boy was pulled out of the rubble in front of my eyes, while he was still alive.
