The Russia-Ukraine war is continuously taking a fierce form. Meanwhile, the Russian army has created chaos by attacking the Ukrainian city of Poltava with two ballistic missiles. 41 people have died in this attack. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that at least 41 people were killed and 180 injured in a Russian attack in the central part of the country. He also said that many people may be buried under the rubble, so search and rescue operations are being carried out and many people have also been rescued.
Writing on the social media website X, President Zelensky said: “I have received preliminary information about a Russian attack in Poltava. According to available information, two ballistic missiles struck the area. They hit an educational institution and a nearby hospital, partially destroying a building of the Institute of Telecommunications.”
Ukraine’s Defense Ministry has said that Russia has targeted a hospital and an educational institution with two ballistic missiles, due to which a building of the institute has been partially destroyed. Along with this, the statement said that the time between the alarm and the attack of deadly missiles was so less that people got hit by it outside the bomb shelter. Due to this the number of casualties is high.
Russian President Zelensky has posted a video message and warned Russia. He said, “Russia will soon have to pay the price for this attack. We urge everyone in the world who has the power to stop this terror that Ukraine needs air defense systems and missiles now, not sitting in storage.”
