‼️ Zelensky reacted to the strike on Kyiv, in particular on the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra
"Due to the Russian strike on the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, the Assumption Cathedral - a church whose history dates back to the 11th century - was on fire. And this is one of the biggest Russian crimes against Christian culture today," the message said.
The president also added that at night, Russia launched 70 missiles and 611 drones at Ukraine. In Kharkiv, five people were killed during a second strike on rescuers who were putting out a fire.
"It's very important that there be a response from the G7 countries, which are currently gathering for a summit, and that it be decisive and meaningful: more pressure on the aggressor, more help for Ukraine with air defense, especially with anti-ballistic systems," the president said.
