In Kyiv, an attack: a house destroyed, children killed. Zelensky awaits reaction from Hungary and China.

On the morning of August 28, Russia launched a new massive strike on Kyiv, reportedly using “Shahed” type attack drones and various types of missiles, including X-47 M2 “Kinzhal” aeroballistic missiles, according to Timur Tkachenko, head of Kyiv’s military administration. As a result of the attack, a five-story residential building on Boryspilska Street in the Darnytskyi district was damaged. A missile hit its third entrance, as reported by Ihor Klymenko, Ukraine’s Minister of Internal Affairs. A significant part of the building collapsed from the first to the fifth floor. Probable casualties have been identified as the search and rescue operation continues.

As of 11:32 on August 28, according to official information, 14 people have died, including three children, and 38 injuries have been recorded. In addition, 10 people are still missing. The strikes also caused destruction in most districts of Kyiv — 20 different locations were affected by the shelling, including residential buildings, a kindergarten, and a shopping center. A day of mourning was declared in Kyiv in memory of the victims.

Besides Kyiv, other regions of Ukraine were also shelled. In the Vinnytsia region, energy facilities were attacked, leaving 60,000 consumers without electricity. Damage to railway infrastructure was also noted, causing changes in train routes between Kyiv and Lviv.

In turn, the Air Forces of Ukraine released data: the attack involved 598 drones and 31 missiles. The missiles and drones targeted both military and civilian objects. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky commented on this tactic of Russia, stating that it is a direct response to those calling for a ceasefire.

Zelensky also expressed expectations regarding the international reaction to the events. It is important, he said, that “The death of children should evoke more emotions than anything else,” and called for tougher sanctions against Russia.

Ukraine’s Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha stated the need to resolve the situation with the international community, emphasizing that Putin’s actions show a refusal of diplomacy.

Military actions continue, and this situation remains in the spotlight. Letters from readers reflecting various viewpoints and experiences also become an important part of the discussion. A balance of opinions, without hate speech, is maintained in the relevant publications.
