-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.

Go slobber Ukraini and Zelinsky. Wipe your chin.
No you don't!
Your entire spiel on this thread has been about Putin committing “war crimes” because some civilians happened to “have died” when some building was attacked in Ukraine, (something that happens in ervrty big war.)
That's what you've been pushing from the get go. And not just on this thread either.
So let him search.
All true
Either one of you could copy and paste..
I’ve done it a couple times.
Just glad many sensible Freepers are standing up.
Some of us have learned the lessons of ww2, know that Russia and China are enemies, and that we have a national security to worry about even when idiot Biden is president.
And that Biden was weak and encouraged this invasion to happen and wanted no war with Russia.
I’m sorry that many of them, misled by Tucker Carlson, actually think we want a nuclear war with Russia.
But they do use crazy tactics. Last night Tucker was right there with them saying Russia never forced covid lockdowns on us etc.
Which has NOTHING to do with Russia being in a military alliance with China and invading Ukraine while threatening to nukev us and our allies.
Some of us have a strategic vision. These idiots actually think it’s all about a petition for a gay statue in Ukraine.
They’re entitled to their opinions but some of them are amoral at best.
You are a disgusting POS. I know it won’t matter what an online person says, but yuo are a gruesome, nasty and horrible person.
Ive seen pictures of the aftermath of the rocket attack, taken before the sheets were added... and without the censoring and blurring.
One was still up on Twitter, deep down in the thread here.
Keep scrolling till you see a tweet by “HedgeRolls” showing Lisa, the child, with her face blurred. Picture was taken as the sheet is being laid over her.
There was a post below it linked to Telegram.
That post has since been removed.
I wish I hadn’t seen it.
The mother Irina’s arm was next to Lisa’s body.
The little girl’s eyes were half open, pupils blown. I reckon she was dead before she hit the ground. Probably a blessing.
You could see blood and skin - possibly some ribs - thru a large patch of Lisa’s torso, where the clothes had been shredded.
If you like I can try and dig the picture out. But i really would rather not.
Or, for the sake of brevity, “doesn’t prove the kid is dead”... Of course the CENSORED pics for sensitive Western audiences obscure the details but the Russkies on Telegram are circulating the uncensored pictures.
And celebrating it.
And yes, she was very clearly dead.
Which Russian state controlled book publisher would print a memoir by anybody, let alone a Putin daughter, alleging he’s a child abuser?
The last time someone did that Putin made sure the guy died a slow death from a dose of polonium.
You can’t even hold up an anti-war blank sheet of paper in Moscow without getting arrested. I don’t think their state censored newspapers are going to even risk “why Putin kissing small boys’ bellies actually isn’t weird at all” article without issuing Geiger counters to the editorial team, and advising them to never go near any seventh floor windows.
Don’t get the wrong idea here. I think Biden’s a senile dementia ridden pervert AS WELL.
It’s quite possible to hold two opinions on two unrelated things.
1. Biden’s a threat to national security and world peace.
2. So is Putin.
Two equally deranged perverts knocking on hell’s door, both dragging the planet into the abyss.
I don’t see the zero sum game here. Biden bad does not mean Putin good.
Jeez you are a one note Wilma. Japan bought war to our doorstep on Dec. 7, 1941 and Nazi Germany declared war on us three days later. The only country ever to do so.
Russia and Ukraine’s war isn’t ours. Two bloody scorpions in a bottle and Zelensky’s thugs are demanding billions a month from us.
“Jeez you are a one note Wilma”
The facts can be played in the key of historic truth.
We look to authentic history, look at the past to see what is possible to honor what has happened before and bring an opportunity of awareness for true historical value now in the present. Every generation needs to know the truth: “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” i.e.: State of the Union Address, 1941.
In his State of the Union Address, Franklin Roosevelt informed Congress of America’s responsibility to be concerned with Europe’s current conflict, the beginning stages of World War II, and the danger their allies’ assailants pose to the United States.
*Roosevelt stated: “we engaged in the War of 1812 to vindicate our right to peaceful trade, it is NEVERTHELESS CLEAR that NEITHER FRANCE NOR GREAT BRITAIN, nor any other nation, was aiming at DOMINATION of the whole world.” *
**”The American people have unalterably set their faces against that tyranny. Every realist knows that the democratic way of life is at this moment being directly assailed in every part of the world—assailed either by arms, or by secret spreading of poisonous propaganda by those who seek to destroy unity and promote discord in nations that are still at peace.”**
To combat potential threat, President Roosevelt suggests an “increase in armament production,” to be used in defense and/or to be supplied to European allies. Roosevelt says these actions, in addition to solutions for social and economic problems in the U.S. were [and are] vital to preserve our democracy and four essential freedoms for us & people through out the world:
1- Freedom of speech
2- Freedom of worship
3- Freedom from want
4- Freedom from fear
It is possible to dislike F..R. but still respect the sound of historic truth in the melody he shared.
None of which existed in Ukraine, still don’t and won’t ever.
And just who the Hell are you anyway, beating the war drum for this bunch of thugs?
Why don’t you go fight in Ukraine?
God knows you’re a gadfly here.
“Putin committing “war crimes””
Yes. TOPIC of post is war crimes of Putin’s military.
“Which has NOTHING to do with Russia being in a military alliance with China and invading Ukraine while threatening to nuke us and our allies.
Some of us have a strategic vision.
GREAT COMMENT!
I do BELIEVE they are able to “CONNECT TH DOTS.” However, is is more comforting for them to ignore the reality.
Of course, they’re entitled to their amoral opinions but when truth is shown slander from them is so predictable!
For them, contrary viewpoints no matter how must be stopped.
