A Russian missile strike on a Ukrainian city killed more than 20 people as civilians gathered to celebrate Palm Sunday, officials said.
Two Russian ballistic missiles struck the city of Sumy at around 10:15 a.m., according to Ukrainian officials. Images from the city show a building blasted to rubble, vehicles on fire in a street and several bodies on the ground.
"On this bright Palm Sunday, our community has suffered a terrible tragedy," Acting Mayor Artem Kobzar said in a statement on social media. "Unfortunately, we already know of more than 20 deaths."

Oh my goodness, another Bucha massacre! More disinfo. The Ukes are the ones who terroristically target civilians. This is another strike like the Uke hotels full of NATO officers that keep getting pulverized.

Strike in Sumy hits gathering of soldiers during awards ceremony — MP Bezuhla
➖ “A message to Syrskyi and especially to the commander of the Territorial Defense Forces: stop gathering troops for award ceremonies, especially in civilian areas — once again, the Russians had intel on the assembly. And formations are still being held at training grounds,” she writes.
▪️ She also points out that no one has been held accountable for previous incidents where Ukrainian soldiers were killed during such gatherings.
➖ “No one has been punished for previous cases. For example, after the tragedy during the awards ceremony of the 128th Brigade, no suspicions have even been issued. Brigade commander Lysiuk is the godfather of General Zubanych…” she complains.

At best, poor OPSEC which has occurred in other similar gatherings
At worst, a deliberately planned provocation…right in the midst of ongoing negotiations in Oman
Good ole Marcus.
Even if true, so what?
Good ole Zelensky.
Such a disgrace, The Lying Media (MSM) only wants to promote religion when it can be used to serve their agenda!!
Horrible human beings serve the MSM (Lying media).
It’s a disgrace that Putin used cluster ballistic missiles on Ukrainian civilians on Palm Sunday.
