British Foreign Secretary David Lammy strongly condemned Russia's massive attack on Ukrainian cities, which resulted in the deaths of civilians and rescue workers, according to Lammy's statement on social media.
"Yet again, Putin is attacking cities, homes, and civilians. These are not military targets but barbaric acts. Among those killed were members of the State Emergency Services who were working tirelessly to save and protect lives," the Foreign Secretary stated.
Lammy emphasized that the victims were not military personnel and that the Russian strikes are further evidence of deliberate terror against the civilian population of Ukraine.
Combined strike on Ukraine
On the night of June 6, Russian forces attacked Ukraine with Shahed drones, ballistic missiles, and cruise missiles. Kyiv, Ternopil, Chernihiv, Lutsk, and Lviv regions were targeted.
It is known that three rescuers who were dealing with the aftermath of the enemy's night attack were killed in Kyiv. According to the latest data, 14 rescuers were injured in the capital. Five rescuers were also injured while extinguishing a fire in the Ternopil region.
