19 People Killed, Half of Them Children, in Russian Attack on Ukraine’s Kryvyi Rih

HeadlineApr 07, 2025

A Russian attack on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s home town of Kryvyi Rih killed at least 19 people, including nine children, some of whom were at a playground. Over 70 people were injured. The U.N.'s top human rights official, Volker Türk, condemned what he called Russia's “reckless disregard for civilian life.” The Russian Defense Ministry claimed the strike targeted a meeting of “unit commanders and Western instructors.” Zelensky criticized Russia again for not agreeing to an unconditional ceasefire.

President Volodymyr Zelensky: “Ukraine has accepted the American proposal, the proposal of a full, unconditional ceasefire. Putin has rejected it. We are waiting for the U.S. reaction. So far there has been none.”
