"Russia has once again carried out a mass strike on peaceful cities. Last night and this morning, Russia attacked Ukraine with missiles and drones. The Kyiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Khmelnytskyi, Cherkasy, and Mykolaiv regions were affected," he said.

According to Lubinets, the attack caused damage to civilian infrastructure, residential buildings, and apartment blocks, with casualties reported, including injuries and deaths.

"Russia is not waging war -- it is terrorizing. The world cannot turn a blind eye. The aggressor must be stopped immediately," the ombudsman said.
