Russian missile strike hits Odesa near where Zelenskyy met with Greek PM
A Russian missile struck Odesa on Wednesday, as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was in the Black Sea port city with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
Zelenskyy was not wounded but said he was close enough to have seen and heard the strike and confirmed a number of people had been killed and injured.
바카라 게임 웹사이트We saw this strike today. You can see who we are dealing with, they don바카라 게임 웹사이트t care where they strike. I know that there were victims today, I don바카라 게임 웹사이트t know all the details yet, but I know that there are dead and wounded,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Zelenskyy said from Odesa on Wednesday.
바카라 게임 웹사이트We need to defend ourselves first and foremost. The best way to do that is with an air defense system,바카라 게임 웹사이트 he added.
Mitsotakis said Zelenskyy had given him a tour of the city before he heard air raid sirens.
바카라 게임 웹사이트Shortly after, as we were getting into our cars, we heard a big explosion,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Mitsotakis told reporters later Wednesday. 바카라 게임 웹사이트I think that for us is the best, most vivid reminder that there is a real war going on here. Every day there is a war, which not only affects the front, the soldiers, it affects our innocent fellow citizens.바카라 게임 웹사이트
Zelenskyy frequently makes high-risk trips to the frontlines and has welcomed dozens of world leaders to Ukraine over more than two years of war with Russia, but Wednesday바카라 게임 웹사이트s attack may represent one of the closest calls for the president.
Russia has pummeled Odesa with missiles for months as Moscow has targeted Ukraine바카라 게임 웹사이트s grain storage facilities.
On Saturday, a Russian drone attack on an apartment block in Odesa killed 12 people, including five children, Ukrainian officials said.
Zelenskyy said the attack pressed home the need to further strengthen the country바카라 게임 웹사이트s air defenses.
