Deadly blast at Kyiv TV tower as Russia warns Ukrainian capital

Deadly blast at Kyiv TV tower as Russia warns Ukrainian capital
Spread The Viralist



At least five people have been killed after Russian forces fired at the main television tower in Kyiv and the city’s main Holocaust memorial, Ukrainian officials said, after Russia warned it would launch “high-precision” strikes on the Ukrainian capital.
Ukrainian authorities said five people were killed and five others wounded in the attack on the TV tower, located a couple of miles from central Kyiv and a short walk from numerous apartment buildings.
Ukraine’s foreign minister has posted a video on Twitter that appears to show an enormous explosion in Kharkiv’s Freedom Square.
“Barbaric Russian missile strikes on the central Freedom Square and residential districts of Kharkiv,” Kuleba said.
Satellites imagery shows a column of artillery and armour, logistics and support units more than 60km long bearing down on the capital Kyiv from the north.
Another is advancing from the south – the aim, to encircle the capital, intimidate the civilian population and force the surrender of Ukraine’s government.

  1. CHARGED WITH CRIMES.
              Russia is a key member of the UN,
              We demand that she obey the orders of this organization
              who ordered an immediate ceasefire and withdrawal from occupied Ukraine
              Order of the International Court of Justice of 16/03/2022
              This war is completely illegal and inhumane.
              He already has too much damage, too many innocent victims.
              Without any reason, she attacked, bombed an independent country.
              All these massacres and all these atrocities must stop.  Russia has committed a real genocide according to the laws and under the eyes of the whole world.
              Ukrainians have the right to live in peace like all of us.
              The Russian people are a respectable people
              but its leaders are real war criminals.
              They accept a heavy sentence.
              And in particular life imprisonment for Vladimir Putin, whose indictment inevitably takes place every day before our eyes.

              This text is consistent with justice pronounced, truth lived and witnessed.
              It will be transmitted to all the media, to all the governments, to all the NGOs and will be published everywhere,
              He wants to remove the fact that we are and remain peace-loving human beings, not wild animals living in the jungle.
