Chernihiv Oblast

that killed the massive attack, which manifested overnight into Wednesday, killed at least 25 people at last count, around 100 people wounded across Ukraine.

Most of the dead, 19 of them, I believe, resulted from a strike that hit an apartment complex in Ukraine's Chernihiv Oblast.

It killed at least 19 people, including five children.

The second incident took place on Thursday in the city of Kramatorsk, which is in Donetsk Oblast in eastern Ukraine, part of the small section of Donetsk that's still under Ukrainian control.

Strikes that came a day after Ukrainian forces launched nearly nine hundred drones at Russia.

The majority of the dead were killed by strikes at an apartment block in Pirlyky, a city in Ukraine's northern Chernihiv Oblast.

According to the main director of the national police in Chernihiv, at least nineteen people, including five children, were killed by the attack.

And then in response, thirty-three killed as Russian glide bomb hits buses in eastern Ukraine.

At the time of recording, a total of thirty people have died and a hundred and seventeen more have been injured over the course of just one night, though of course that number may still rise.

In Pryluky, for example, a city in the Chernihiv Oblast, a cruise missile struck an apartment building, killing twenty-two people, including five children.

In Kyiv, at least four people have been killed and thirteen more injured.

But the resulting disruptions to the electricity and water supplies in the city have left many residents without power and without water.

[laughs] Yeah.

You cannot take Kyiv with like 200,000 men, and we're talking 200,000 men that, okay, between 250 and 290, that were stretched between Donbas, Kyiv, and, uh, Chernihiv Oblast.

Like, uh, y- it doesn't work like that.

Uh, if you want-

Uh, you know, we were reporting about this awful, awful war crime that has happened, uh, that was carried out by Russians in Kramatorsk.

But yesterday we also had a, the, another w- awful thing that happened in Priluki in Chernihiv region where the, a ballistic missile hit a, a, uh, residential building where twenty-five, uh, twenty-two ch- uh, people were killed, uh, fifty-five were wounded, and among those killed were five children.

So, uh, this, this genocide and this, um, absolute terror is happening across the country, not only in the cities and towns that are close to the frontline, but they are, uh, the Russian terrorists are trying to turn the whole country into a frontline

But is, is, is it a, a Russian objective to get people to leave these places so that they are easier to conquer?

Separately, President Zelenskyy said that every family that lost their home as a result of yesterday's missile strike on Pryluky will receive a new house.

Ukraine State Emergency service said earlier today that the death toll from the attack on Pryluky, that's a city in Chernihiv Oblast in northern Ukraine, has risen to 22, including three babies and an eight-year-old.

Another 54 people were injured.

President Zelenskyy was speaking having visited the site of the attack earlier today with Britain's Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband.

Ukraine President urges Washington to increase sanctions and pressures on Russia to end the war machine of theirs.

While speaking to journalists in city of Pryluky in Ukraine's northern Chernihiv region, alongside United Kingdom's Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband, Zelenskyy called on the United States to, quote, "Step up the pressure on Russia to force Moscow to come to the negotiating table." He cited measures such as sanctions against Russia and financial aid to Ukraine in this context.

He said, quote, "Our team is in Europe today and will be in United States tomorrow or the day after.

I hope the appropriate signals will be conveyed." Zelenskyy's visit to Pryluky came as local authorities said earlier on Thursday that twenty-two people were killed and more than fifty injured in a Russian missile strike on the city a day earlier.

Strikes hit 18 locations.

Pryluky in Chernihiv region took the heaviest toll.

A cruise missile hit a residential building and killed at least 22 people, five of them children.
