Zelenskyy urges more international pressure on Russia for civilian deaths
The U.N. said Russian aerial attacks killed 437 civilians and wounded more than 2,600 in July, as Zelenskyy urged tougher pressure.
- Russian aerial attacks overnight into Wednesday killed at least two people and wounded seven across six Ukrainian regions, including strikes on a 22-story residential building in Kyiv's Darnytskyi district that damaged the 11th and 12th floors.
- The United Nations reported last month that July saw more Ukrainian civilian deaths and injuries than any month since March 2022, with 437 killed and more than 2,600 wounded; more than 16,800 have died since the invasion began.
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy chided the international community Wednesday for not taking a tougher stance, warning that "Moscow must not go into the winter believing that it can get away with missile and drone terror without consequences."
- Zelenskyy said Ukraine is responding with daily long-range attacks targeting Novorossiysk, a Black Sea port in Russia's Krasnodar region, striking a naval base, oil terminals, and warships at a key hub for Russia's Black Sea Fleet.
- Russia's Defense Ministry claimed it downed 596 Ukrainian drones from late Tuesday until early Wednesday, while Krasnodar Gov. Veniamin Kondratyev reported four people, including a child, were killed and 29 wounded in the Novorossiysk strike.
