Kyiv President Zelensky announced that in the past week alone, the Russian Federation launched over 3,100 high-explosive drones, 92 other missiles of various types (both ballistic and cruise), and about 1,360 guided glide bombs against Ukraine. A walk through the streets of the Ukrainian capital reveals that most of these attacks targeted civilian infrastructure, indicating that Putins goal was to spread terror.
As you can see from the videos we recorded for the YouTube channel and website of the Italian newspaper La Ragione,walking through the Solomianskyi district of Kyiv, its hard to find a single section of its building facades where the windows havent been replaced with plywood, where the plaster isnt blackened or chipped, and where the shop windows arent covered with additional wooden boards, temporary tarps, or sandbags.We are open, we are working these few words are posted at their entrance, inviting people in becausethe outside is scratched, but we are invincible, and inside it is beautiful.An entire building in that district was struck head-on by a Russian missile, completely destroying it down to its foundations. Dolls and toys, carefully arranged on the front patio next to a childrens playground that was also destroyed, serve as a reminder that several children lost their lives in that massacre.
Openly exploiting the worlds focus on the Middle East,the Russian Federation continued strikes on Ukraines civilian areas throughout the past weekend, conducting attacks of equal ferocity. A 23-year-old woman bled to death after being torn to pieces by an FPV drone that chased her into a shop in Nikopol. Nearby, other identical drones butchered a 62-year-old man by entering through the windows of his home. In Chernihiv, Russian drone operators carried out a devastating double tap to maximize casualties from an attack targeting rescue workers who responded to the latest strike on a civilian train locomotive. A swarm of incendiary UAVs launched from Russian positions in the Black Sea ignited everything in an area of over 5,000 square meters in the Odesa oblast, destroying fabric and clothing warehouses, shops, and the civilians inside. Dropping a bomb on the Church of Job Pochaiv of the UOC in Kostiantynivka, Moscows air force instantly killed two men, aged 49 and 56, wounded several other civilians, and damaged nine homes in the Diocese of Horlivka. When Ukrainian police arrived at the scene of the tragedy, they found a two-year-old child alone after seeing his grandfather and father seriously injured trailing in panic toward the hospital in Druzhkivka. In Kherson, Russian military forces used a drone to attack an ambulance speeding through the heart of the Dnipro district, causing two more deaths and five injuries in a raid targeting residential neighborhoods. In that bombing, the Russians also targeted shops, gas stations, warehouses, cars, and thirteen apartment buildings. All of these are civilian targets, just like the premises of Stepan Chubenko General Secondary School №12, which two Russian Geran-2 drones struck on Saturday night in Kramatorsk.
The scope and severity of this terror, which Ukraine has been enduring for 1,328 days and, on a smaller scale, for another eight years, is embarrassing. Its equally embarrassing to walk through the wooden storefronts and steadfast hearts of Kyiv and learn that the White House leader will confront the Russian dictator over the sale of Tomahawks to NATO and that the Federal Association of German Airlines (BDF) is urging politicians to act, requesting permission to neutralize those (Russian) drones that fly daily over its airports and which the federal police refuse to shoot down despite having full authority to do so.

在過去三年裏，我們作為自由記者，從烏克蘭各個戰線報道自全麵戰爭爆發以來的情況

Kyiv澤連斯基總統宣布，僅在上周，俄羅斯聯邦就向烏克蘭發射了超過3100架高爆無人機，92枚其他各種類型的導彈（包括彈道導彈和巡航導彈），以及大約1360枚製導滑翔彈。走在烏克蘭首都的街頭可以看到，大部分襲擊目標是民用基礎設施，這表明普京的目標是傳播恐怖。

從我們為意大利報紙《La Ragione》的YouTube頻道和網站拍攝的視頻中可以看到，走在基輔索洛米揚斯基區，很難找到任何建築立麵的窗戶沒有被膠合板取代，石膏沒有變黑或碎裂，商店櫥窗沒有覆蓋額外的木板、臨時防水布或沙袋。我們在營業，我們在工作這些字貼在他們入口處，邀請人們進入，因為外麵被劃傷了，但我們不可戰勝，裏麵很美。那一帶的一座整棟建築被俄軍導彈正麵襲擊，完全炸毀到地基。前院的兒童遊樂場也被摧毀了，現在裏麵精心擺放著娃娃和玩具，提醒人們在那場屠殺襲擊中有幾個兒童喪生。

在世界的焦點放在中東局勢的同時，俄羅斯聯邦乘機在上周末持續對烏克蘭平民區域發動襲擊，展開了同樣激烈的攻擊。據報道，在尼古波爾，一名23歲的女子被一架FPV無人機追擊，撕成碎片，在她跑進了商店後流血致死。就在那兒附近，其他相同型號的無人機也闖入一戶人家的窗戶，殘忍殺害了一名62歲的男子。在切爾尼戈夫，俄軍無人機操縱員針對趕去救援被襲擊的民用火車機車的救援人員進行了二次攻擊，試圖最大程度地增加傷亡。
從俄羅斯在黑海的陣地發射的一波燃燒無人機點燃了敖德薩州5000多平方米的區域，摧毀了紡織品和服裝倉庫、商店和裏麵的平民。莫斯科空軍發射炸彈擊中科斯蒂安蒂尼夫卡的奧科伊斯教堂，當場炸死了兩名分別為49歲和56歲的男子，打傷了其他幾名平民，並摧毀了霍利夫卡教區的九所房屋。
當烏克蘭警方趕到事故現場時，看到一名兩歲的兒童獨自一人驚慌失措地向德魯日基夫卡的醫院跑去，她的父親和祖父都受了重傷。在赫爾鬆，俄軍用無人機襲擊了一輛正在飛速穿過第聶伯區中心的救護車，造成兩人死亡、五人受傷。那次空襲中，俄軍還瞄準了商店、加油站、倉庫、汽車和13座公寓樓。這些目標都是平民目標，就像周六晚上2架俄羅斯Geran-2無人機襲擊克拉馬托爾斯克的斯捷潘丘貝恩科第12號中學一樣。
這場烏克蘭已經持續遭受了1328天的恐怖活動的規模和嚴重程度令人感到憤怒，烏克蘭已經忍受了1328天，或者說忍受了八年。同樣令人憤怒的是，走在基輔那些木製店麵和堅韌不屈的心靈之間，得知白宮領導人將就向北約出售戰斧飛機一事與俄羅斯獨裁者磋商，德國航空公司聯邦協會（BDF）正在敦促政界采取行動，請求允許擊落那些每天在其機場上空飛行的（俄羅斯）無人機，而聯邦警察盡管有充分的權力，但拒絕將其擊落。
