“HE WAS GREETING TO BIDEN”
Mayor Andriy Sadoviy stated that the reason for the shooting of the city of Lviv, which is close to the Polish border, was because President Biden was in Poland, “This is the second attack in the last week. Infrastructure targeted. There is serious damage to the city. The explosion waves resulting from the attack damaged educational institutions such as schools and kindergartens. The windows were shattered, but while there was no loss of life, some citizens were injured. With today’s attacks, the aggressive country sent greetings to President Biden in Poland. Lviv is 70 kilometers from Poland. The whole world must understand that the threat is very serious. No one knows their future plans. All cities are in trouble. I hope there will be less casualties. “The more weapons we have, the more rocket destruction weapons we have, the faster our victory will be,” he said.
“YOU MUST FOLLOW THE RULES OF JOURNALISM”
A journalist asked, “How do you view journalists who are citizens of foreign countries showing the shooting points in the live broadcast?” To the question, Governor Kozitskiy said, “Foreign journalists have been in hot conflict zones a lot. You must understand that we are a city in peace and follow the rules of journalism.”
Mayor Sadoviy said, “Are you going to increase the security level in the city?” To the question, “We removed the military points from Lviv before 25 February. Aggressive country is hitting civilian places. Therefore, the danger is very high in our city. We do not know the next target of the Russian rockets. Missiles launched from Sevastopol did not just hit Lviv. We are all in the same situation. The faster we get the rocket destruction weapons, the safer our city will be. I ask you to go to shelters, your health is important to us. Thank you” he replied.
