In Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed that a Russian guided aerial bomb struck a blood transfusion center in Kupiansk, a town in the Kharkiv region of eastern Ukraine, late on Saturday. The president stated on his Telegram channel that there were casualties as a result of the attack. Reuters has yet to verify this information. Kupiansk is a railway hub located less than 10 miles from the front lines.
Zelensky noted that rescue workers were tackling a fire at the scene and denounced the strike as a “war crime.” He did not provide specific details regarding the number of fatalities or injuries.
Russia has denied intentionally targeting civilians in its full-scale invasion, which has claimed the lives of thousands, displaced millions, and caused the destruction of numerous cities.
