Quote from Zelenskyy: "Russian missiles against our cities and people. At the moment, five people, including a 14-year-old girl, are known to have been killed in the strike on Lviv [later reports suggest there have been seven fatalities, including three children - ed.] My condolences to the families and friends of the deceased. Over 30 people have been injured.

Residential buildings, schools and medical facilities in the city have been damaged."

Details: Zelenskyy also mentioned the city of Kryvyi Rih in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, where a Russian attack resulted in five people being injured and caused significant damage to houses and civilian infrastructure.

"Every partner [of Ukraine] in the world who helps Ukraine with air defence is a true guardian of life.

And everybody who convinces the partners to give Ukraine more long-range capabilities to respond to [Russian] terror fairly is working to prevent exactly such Russian terrorist strikes on Ukrainian cities.

Terror must be stopped," Zelenskyy concluded.
