The Russian military launched an increased number of missile strikes in Ukraine toward the end of June, with some of them striking heavily populated civilian structures.
U.S. ambassador to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, Michael Carpenter, told the Special Permanent Council on Tuesday that Russian forces had launched “at least 100 missiles” during the final weekend of June. A Pentagon official confirmed to the Washington Examiner on Tuesday that there was an"uptick" in attacks recently.
A Russian airstrike killed at least 21 people when it hit residential areas last Friday in the key port city of Odesa, while a Kremenchuk mall was hit during busy hours that left at least 18 civilians dead. Both strikes incurred widespread condemnation from Ukrainian and Western leaders, while Russian officials denied hitting the mall, a tactic the Kremlin has used repeatedly throughout the war.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the strike “one of the most defiant terrorist attacks in European history.”
