Kyiv. The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine is not stopping. Meanwhile, Russia has carried out its biggest attack on Ukraine, killing 51 people. According to the Ukrainian Prosecutor General’s Office, 51 people were killed in a Russian attack against a military educational facility in central Ukraine. More than 200 people were injured.
Let us tell you that this is one of the biggest attacks since the beginning of Russia’s attack on Ukraine in February 2022. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a post that he had received information about the Russian attack in Poltava. An educational institution and a nearby hospital were targeted in the attack. A building of the Telecommunications Institute was also partially destroyed in the attack.
The President said that we have been repeatedly telling those who can stop this terror that Ukraine needs air defense systems and ballistic missiles to protect itself from air attacks. They should get it as soon as possible, and not keep them in the warehouse. About 10 residential buildings of the military educational institution have been damaged.
Although Moscow has not commented on the attack, a well-known Russian military blogger Vladimir Rozov reported on Tuesday that Russia attacked a military school in Poltava. The President also thanked those who helped in the relief work after the attack. Zelensky has ordered a full and immediate investigation of the attack. He said that all the necessary services are involved in the rescue work. He has demanded the supply of more air defense systems and long-range missiles from Western allies.
