-At least 20 dead, including three children, and 90 hurt after three Russian rockets struck city of Vinnytsya
-Office block was badly damaged in Thursday morning attack, which also torched vehicles in nearby car park
-Zelensky called strike 'terrorism', saying there are no military targets in city which is 450 mm the miles from the front
-It is the sixth Russian strike in a little over two weeks to hit a purely civilian target, with scores of people killed
At least 20 people - including three children - are dead and 90 wounded after Russian rockets hit another Ukrainian city in Putin's latest atrocity against civilians.
Three missiles slammed into a nine-storey office block in the Ukrainian city of Vinnytsya - 450 miles from the Donbas frontline - around 10.50am, partially destroying the building, damaging nearby residential structures, and demolishing a medical centre, emergency services said. Four more missiles were shot down in the area.
'Unfortunately, there is probably no chance of finding anyone who survived (under the rubble),' stated a senior regional emergency service official.
President Zelensky branded Russia 'a terrorist country' as he condemned the attack, which comes off the back of at least six similar strikes in a little over two weeks targeting purely civilian areas across the country.
'Every day, Russia destroys the civilian population, kills Ukrainian children, directs rockets at civilian objects where there is nothing military.
'What is this, if not an open act of terrorism? Inhumans. A killer country. A terrorist country.'
Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba accused Russia of committing 'another war crime'.
Ukraine says Putin's men are taking an 'operation pause' before pushing on with their offensive, but that has not stopped them raining down death from a distance.

“THAT is the actual problem Russia intentionally targeted civilians NOT random pointS on the map.”
And we did not in WW2, Southeast Asia, Iraq and Afghanistan?
So in a story about Ukraine, the Putin troll is now posting that I was one of the biggest supporters of covid lockdowns?
When I always opposed lockdowns.
So just what is the evil mission of these folks?
Combine that with the America bashing regarding World War 2.
I guess they have a screw loose.
Don't forget Bill Clinton's deliberate bombing of an Aspirin factory in the Sudan to try and divert attention from his disgraceful shenanigans with Lewinsky.
Joke past?
You referencing Britannica is akin to referencing Wikipedia, Compost, NPR and Karine Jean-Pierre.
Um, YOU DID.
REPEATEDLY!
And of course nothing to do with Ukraine.
Apart from both being pushed by the same group of people you mean?
“But even to your point, Russian has no where near the precision weapons the United States has. They are actually using a lot of WWII munitions.
Like saying, I couldn’t CONTROL myself because your nation was moving forward, so I had to beat you up to CONTROL & STOP YOU!
To your point, “IF YOU CAN’T CONTROL YOUR WEAPONS STOP INVADING A SOVEREIGN NATION!!!”

“The RuZZiaus are doomed I say!”
Amen. From your lips to God’s ears
You’ve never heard of daycare?
Nobody is shilling for Ukraine. The issue at hand is Putinist Russia threatening nuclear war on us while genocidally trying to erase a country of 40 million people. That is something all genuine American conservatives reject.
Don’t give him the attention. The guy is just an agenda driven liar who hates America. Not an exaggeration
“Russians diabolical assassins”
YES
Ukraine: Russia’s cruel siege warfare tactics unlawfully killing civilians – new testimony and investigation
There are currently over 27 wars going on worldwide for all kinds of reasons. You want to interfere in all those too and send $54 Billion that you borrowed to each of them as well, and send fuel and food and rent prices skyrocketing, with inflation at 40 year highs?
MAYBE THIS WOULD CLARIFY THE “WHAT ABOUT LOGICAL FALLACIES”
REGARDING PUTIN’S MILITARY WAR CRIMES:
Article 25 of the Hague Convention of 1899 laid down that “The attack or bombardment of towns, villages, habitations or buildings which are not defended, is prohibited”. This is why the German bombing of Warsaw and London, the British bombing of Dresden, and the American bombing of Hiroshima were all perfectly legal under international law: because those cities were defended.
The rules of war also included specific requirements such as NOT attacking hospitals, and if possible giving CIVILIANS WARNING to evacuate or take shelter before military operations began.
The 1st Protocol of the Geneva Conventions signed in 1977 made it a war crime to launch ‘indiscriminate attacks’ which would affect civilians. This would include area bombing of a city, as opposed to targeting individual objectives within it. Reprisals or terror attacks against civilians were also made into war crimes in 1977.”
You've got to be kidding me.
So according to you, if anyone is defending themselves from foreign attacks, then their women, children and old folks should be slaughtered?
So why are you shilling for Ukraine over a Russian attack that may have killed civilians then? You should be perfectly happy with it.
Yes, the atrocities of Vietnam (and others) were wrong too. Nothing compares to the scale of Russia’s or Germany’s atrocities, however. NOTHING.
And by the way, brain-dead doofuses in other countries didn’t CELEBRATE Johnson or Bush like FR resident PUter fans.
If you think people in Russia, when confronted with American crimes, start reminding themselves of Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Finland, Sweden, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, or Grozny, you are even dumber than you sound.
Now, go jump off a cliff you America-hating marxist.
Spoken like a truly vile PUtler-loving pig.
I see evidence of F.A.S. among the posters here at times too.
“So we have a pro Russian,pro Hitler and anti American disgusting post on Free Republic.”
Plenty of that going around lately. This site is becoming a disgrace to its own memory.
