Second wave: strike on a kindergarten
During the second wave of the attack, a drone struck a multi-story residential building. A separate strike targeted a kindergarten building — a fire broke out there. Rescuers are working at the scene. The total number of injured has risen to six; all are receiving medical assistance. Details are being clarified.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warns: despite colossal losses at the front, Russia is preparing for a new wave of mobilization and further offensives. According to his data, the Russian irrecoverable losses are already approaching 60% of their total personnel strength.
Even within Russia itself, it is acknowledged that its troops are unable to fulfill the tasks set by the command. Meanwhile, as RBC-Ukraine reported earlier, US President Donald Trump told Britain's King Charles III that Vladimir Putin seeks war and is capable of destroying the population.
