Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says that Russia’s attack with a new type of ballistic robot against the city of Dnipro is another escalation in the war.
“This is an obvious and serious escalation of the scale and cruelty of this war, a cynical violation by Russia of the UN Charter,” Zelenskyy said in a post on Telegram.
He says the robot attack is Russia’s second step toward escalation this year, after North Korean soldiers joined the war, and that this is further evidence that Russia does not want peace.
“The world must react. Right now, a strong reaction from the world is missing. Putin is very sensitive about this. He is testing you,” says Zelensky.
