There can be no pauses in assistance to Ukraine, not for a day, not for a week, and certainly not for a month, when Ukrainian military personnel are saving Ukrainian citizens every day from terror by the Russians, said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

"Every day our cities and villages suffer such strikes. Every day Ukraine loses people due to Russian evil. And there can be no pauses, not for a day, not for a week, and certainly not for a month in support, when we simply need to protect lives, simply save people from terror," said Zelenskyy.

The head of state also noted that as a result of the Russian strike on Kryvyi Rih, dozens of people were injured, including nine children, and three people died.

According to the President of Ukraine, the rescue operation has been completed, but the affected individuals continue to receive necessary assistance.

"Thanks to everyone involved in the rescue operation: the State Emergency Service, medical workers, the National Police, psychologists, and volunteers. Great gratitude to everyone who cares for our people. And to all who ensure accountability of the terrorist state," emphasized Zelenskyy.
