He made the statement on Telegram.

"Last night the enemy attacked Ukraine again with missiles and UAVs. Terrorists targeted civilians and objects," the President emphasized.

According to him, about 10 apartment buildings were damaged as a result of the missile attack on Uman. In one of them an entire block was destroyed. People are still trapped under the rubble. There are also injured and dead, including a child.

Russian shelling in Dnipro also claimed the life of a child. The President expressed his condolences to all those who lost their relatives and friends due to Russian terror.

He also thanked the Air Force, anti-aircraft gunners and all those who help to overcome the consequences of attacks and who protect Ukrainians.

"This Russian terror must face a fair response from Ukraine and the world. And it will. Every such attack, every evil act against our country and people brings the terrorist state closer to failure and punishment, not vice versa, as they think. We will not forget any crime, we will not let any invader avoid responsibility," President Zelenskyy said.

  • On the night of April 28, the Russian army attacked Ukrainian regions with missiles and drones. In Uman, Cherkasy region, a Russian missile hit a high-rise building: 6 people were killed and 17 injured. In Dnipro, a 2-year-old girl and a 31-year-old woman were killed and 4 people were injured.

  • Also this morning, in the town of Ukrainka, Kyiv region, fragments of a Russian missile hit a high-rise building, injuring a child. A total of 11 cruise missiles and 2 UAVs were shot down in the airspace of the capital.
