Quote: "For their attack on Radushne, the Russians used a North Korean missile for the first time in a while – that's according to early reports. There will of course be expert assessments, everything will be verified, but as of now, this is [thought to be] North Korean ballistics. An alliance of Moscow scumbags with the crazy North Korean regime – for the sake of missiles, for the sake of a North Korean contingent here in Europe, on our borders, and for the sake of killing our Ukrainian children.

Of course, many people around the world have condemned this strike today. There have been many condolences over the loss of life. European countries have said a great deal as well about the Russian missile that flew into Polish territory and exploded somewhere in a field near Lublin. Still, the most important thing is not just condolences and condemnation, but air defence missiles and precisely the kind of pressure on Russia that can stop this senseless Russian war, all their strikes and terror."

Details: Zelenskyy stressed that air defence missiles are a key priority.

"I am very much counting on all [Ukraine's] partners, and above all our American partners and our friends in Europe, to feel that real human lives depend on whether they help us, whether they help Ukraine," he added.

Background: A Russian missile strike on a house in a suburb of Kryvyi Rih killed six people, including three children.
