Details: Starmer said he is outraged by Russia's latest brutal nighttime attack on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities, which killed civilians and damaged infrastructure.
Quote: "For the first time, the heart of Ukraine’s civilian government was damaged. These cowardly strikes show that Putin believes he can act with impunity. He is not serious about peace. Now, more than ever, we must stand firm in our support for Ukraine and its sovereignty."
