WASHINGTON (Worthy News) – U.S. President Donald J. Trump issued a rare rebuke of Russian President Vladimir Putin as Moscow killed at least 12 people and injured 90 others in a massive attack on the Ukrainian capital early Thursday.
The assault was the deadliest on the capital, Kyiv, since last summer. Explosions shook buildings and sent more than 16,000 people into the subway system to take shelter, officials said.
Clouds of smoke rose over the city as the sun came up.
One missile hit a two-story building with 12 apartments where emergency workers hunted for survivors, witnesses saw.
A five-story building next door lost all its windows. People stood outside, staring at the damage and talking on their phones, telling loved ones they were alive. No military target was visible nearby.
Zelenskyy said nearly 70 missiles, including ballistic ones, and about 150 attack drones had targeted cities across the country — although Kyiv was hit the hardest.
While Trump has publicly condemned Zelenskyy, he was able to set those differences aside and focus on criticizing Trump on Thursday. On his Truth Social platform, Trump wrote that the attacks were “not necessary” and “very” poorly timed. “Vladimir, Stop! 5,000 soldiers a week are dying,” he said.
Yet despite his appeal, Ukrainians feared more attacks.
