NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg said: “Russia has begun horrific attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure.”
“We will respond to any attack on our allies’ infrastructure,” Stoltenberg added.
RUSSIA HAS ATTACKED KIEV
A large number of explosions occurred in the morning hours in the capital of Ukraine, Kiev.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine reported that 8 people were killed and 24 people were injured in the latest attacks on Kiev, according to the first determinations.
President of Ukraine Zelenskiy said, “On the 229th day of the war, they are trying to destroy us and wipe us off the face of the earth. They killed those who slept in their homes in Zaporizhia and those who went to work in Kiev.”
EXPLOSION ON KERCH BRIDGE
It was stated that Russia’s attacks in Kiev were in retaliation for the explosion on the Kerch Bridge.
On Saturday, an explosion occurred on the Crimean Bridge in Crimea, which Russia annexed in 2014.
The first statement about the explosion from the Kerch Bridge came from Ukraine, and Podolyak, Deputy Head of the Ukrainian Presidential Office, said on Twitter: “Crimea, the bridge, it’s just the beginning. Everything illegal must be destroyed, everything stolen must be returned to Ukraine, by Russia. Everything occupied must be deported,” he said.
