At least 17 people have been killed in Russia's latest attacks on Ukrainian cities, including two 15-year-old girls.
In Dnipro, Russian drones struck a railway station, hitting a platform where a commuter train and a scheduled passenger train were standing. At least 13 people were killed and 10 others injured.
In Chernihiv, Russia struck the city centre in broad daylight, when the streets were busy with people. Two 15-year-old girls were killed, and at least nine other people were injured, including children. Homes, businesses, and cars were damaged.
In Kremenchuk, Poltava region, a Russian drone hit a residential apartment building, killing two people and injuring nine, including two children. In Zaporizhzhia, an FPV drone struck a minibus in the city centre, injuring one person.
Russia also attacked a poultry farm in the Kyiv region, where approximately 16,000 birds were kept.
These are ordinary places where people live, work, and travel. Russia continues to attack them, killing civilians and putting more lives at risk.
Russia is not de-escalating its war against Ukraine. Easing sanctions while these attacks continue only weakens pressure on the aggressor. Stronger sanctions against Russia's energy sector and war machine are needed to stop its aggression.
