As U.S. President Donald Trump continues to blame Ukraine for failing to cooperate in peace negotiations, Russia has intensified its assaults on Ukrainian territory, causing numerous casualties and extensive destruction.
The situation on the eastern front is deteriorating as Russian forces escalate their bombardment of cities and civilian settlements.
The latest attack targeted Dobropillya, in the Donetsk region, resulting in massive destruction and multiple casualties. Ukrainian authorities report that at least 11 civilians have been killed and 30 others injured, some in critical condition.
The assault severely damaged civilian infrastructure, setting residential buildings and dozens of apartments ablaze, leaving many families homeless. Rescue teams have been working tirelessly to extinguish the fires and recover survivors from the rubble.
In a particularly brutal act, Russia launched a second strike while firefighters were responding to the destruction, damaging a fire truck and endangering emergency workers. Ukrainian officials have condemned the attack, calling it a deliberate attempt to hinder humanitarian aid and instill fear among civilians.
As Russia’s relentless strikes continue to wreak havoc, the international community is renewing calls for an immediate end to the aggression and increased support for the Ukrainian people.
