Last minute The world stood up after Putins decision in

– I have just received information about a Russian robot attack against a railway station in the Dnipro region. Four wagons were on fire, the president said in a speech before the UN Security Council early Wednesday afternoon.

Initially, Zelenskyi stated that 15 people were killed, but during the evening the death toll has risen.

Chaplyne is home to around 3,500 people and lies prone in eastern Ukraine just to the left of Donetsk. Pictures show how several buildings and train carriages were completely destroyed by the robot attacks.

Ann Linde pays attention

Swedish Foreign Minister Ann Linde writes in a Twitter post on Wednesday evening that she condemns the Chaplyne attack:

“Our thoughts go out to the injured and the families of those who lost their lives.”

An important day for the country

Wednesday marks six months since Russia’s invasion and 31 years since Ukraine declared independence from the Soviet Union. Despite today’s devastating attacks, the president writes in a telegram that Ukraine’s independence will not be compromised.

“We will definitely force the occupiers to answer for everything they have caused. And we will certainly throw the invaders out of our land.” Zelenskyy added in his message. He concluded with the now many times repeated expression “Glory to Ukraine”.
