At least 21 people were killed in the latest attack on Kyiv, which occurred in the early hours of Tuesday, June 17, 2025. The impact was so severe that Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned it as one of the worst attacks since the beginning of the war in February 2022. In this new Russian assault targeting the heart of Ukraine, several children and adults lost their lives. Heartbreaking scenes reminiscent of ancient tragedies unfolded. A video posted on social media shows the moment a father learns his child has been pulled lifeless from the rubble. Unable to believe what he hears, he collapses into the arms of family and friends, who are also in tears over the loss of their loved one. Nearby, the boy’s mother weeps inconsolably for her lost child. Peace negotiations remain at a standstill as Ukrainian cities continue to suffer nightly Russian strikes.
