Ukraine will do everything to ensure that the Russian occupiers are punished for their terrorist acts, including today's strike on a high-rise building in Dnipro, according to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

As he said, the occupiers in Dnipro not only targeted the high-rise building but also struck the building of the Security Service of Ukraine.

"Promptly held conversations with the Security Service of Ukraine, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the State Emergency Service, and the military administration head," he said.

The head of state added that all necessary services are on-site providing assistance to the victims, and the situation is under control.

"We will do everything to bring Russia to full punishment for aggression and terror against our people. These bastards will answer. We will do everything for justice," emphasized the President.

Background
