Russian army attacks Kyiv TV tower, 5 dead

Russian forces on Tuesday  attacked the central square in Kyiv’s main TV tower. The attack on the TV tower killed at least 5, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky said. He also charged Moscow of a flagrant campaign of vowed and terror: “Nobody will forgive. Nobody will forget.”

The tweet of the President mentioned, “To the world: what is the purpose in talking about «never again for a considerable length of 80 years, if the world keeps quiet when a bomb drops on a similar site of Babyn Yar? At least 5 killed. History repeating…”

Ukrainian TV channels quit telecom after a power substation and TV control room were hit. A 64-kilometer convoy of hundreds of Russian tanks and other vehicles advanced on Kyiv in what the West feared was a bid by Russian President Vladimir Putin to topple Ukraine’s government and install a Kremlin-friendly regime. Russian powers squeezed their assault on different towns and urban communities the nation over, including at or close to the essential ports of Odesa and Mariupol in the south.

Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Dmytro Kuleba said that Nazis killed over 33 thousand Jews where the tower was situated.

Day 6 of the ground war in Europe since World War II found Russia increasingly isolated,  by tough sanctions that have thrown its economy into turmoil and left the country practically friendless, apart from a few countries like China, Belarus and North Korea.

A senior Western intelligence official, who had been briefed by multiple intelligence agencies, assumed on Tuesday that more than 5,000 Russian soldiers had been killed or kept under watch.
