Putin strikes back
More than 10 deaths have been reported across Ukraine as Russia unleashed a wave of air strikes. It’s the first major attack on Kyiv in months, and reports say civilians were targeted as things got too close for comfort for one journo… Residential buildings, playgrounds and the National University in the capital were hit along with transport and energy infrastructure assets that have left many regions without power. Analysts say it’s the most widespread series of Russian attacks since the early weeks of the war. Russian President Vladimir Putin accused Ukraine of “terrorism” following Saturday’s blast on the bridge in Crimea. He said the strikes were retaliation, and there’s more to come. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg condemned Russia’s “horrific and indiscriminate attacks on civilian infrastructure in Ukraine” and said the alliance would continue to support Ukraine.
