According to President Volodimirmir Zelenki and government officials, the northeastern city missile strike in the northeastern Ukrainian city has left at least 34 civilians and 117 wounded.
Families and children were shot lying on the streets, and the buildings were destroyed before Easter a week ago when Christians celebrate Palm. Two children were killed and 11 were injured in the attack, Zelenki said.
“Beginning such an attack on the main Christian holiday is an absolute evil,” said Foreign Minister Andrey Siba. He said that his office “shares detailed information about this war crime with all our partners and international institutions,” urging all the capitals and the headquarters to respond strongly. “
“In a row, Russia has refused to accept the US proposal for a full ceasefire, which unconditionally adopted Ukraine on March 11.”

The strike came less than President Donald Trump Special envoy Steve Whitkoff met with Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss his full war. Two men spread tablecloths and put forward for TV cameras, where there are four hours of conversations in St. Petersburg, where Wittoff also visited the synagogue and a Orthodox Christian Temple.
Dmitry Peskov, Putin’s spokesman on the US-Russia talks as a “shocking work” and on Sunday, rapid breakthrough expectations for rapid breakthrough broadcasts.
He said that Russia and the United States should “work more work and more time” before their relations are restored.
But Ukrainian officials said that the fatal strike in a densely populated Sumi was proof that Putin wanted to continue all his military campaign since World War II. The official said that Putin was “clearly playing with Trump.”
In recent days, the US President has disappointed what he viewed as Putin dragged his feet to peace talks.
Russia has rejected Trump’s proposal on an unconditional 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine that all Putin’s maximalist demands an end to the war to end.
These include the annexation of large chambers of the area, including areas, including in Moscow, as well as completing the security order of Ukraine as a sovereignty, as well as the security of post-level war safety.
Although Putin has offered to stop strikes on energy infrastructure, he confirmed a ceasefire in the Black Sea until the West removes sanctions on some Russian lenders. The Russian Defense Ministry also claims that Ukraine does not maintain the energy ceasefire.
Sumi, in the northeastern Ukraine, was invaded under the forces and partial employment of Moscow forces in 2022.
As Russian troops were pushed out that year later, following the surprise Matthew of the Kursk region last August, Sumi came to heavy Russian bombs and drones aimed at his critical infrastructure and shocking districts.
Zelensky condemned the missile strike, calling for an international international response and reaffirm that “peace is impossible” without stable pressure on Russia.
The strike comes from a week after the Russian missile attack, including in Zelensky’s hometown, including nine children.
“Russia wants to be such a terrorist attack and pushes out this war,” he said.
German Chancellor Olaf Schols described the attack as a “barbarian”.
“Such Russian attacks show that Russia’s alleged readiness to establish peace. Instead, we see that Russia is relentlessly continuing its aggression war.
