0:03
given reasons why the country under
0:05
Russia attacks is currently launching
0:07
offensive actions deep inside Russia
0:09
territories saying almost every single
0:12
day Russia fired hundreds of drones and
0:15
missiles into Ukrainian cities
0:17
especially civilian or residential areas
0:20
killing civilians women and children
0:22
specifically stating that a day before

0:33
Ukraine overnight with 480 drones and
0:36
missiles zalinski stated this while
0:39
responding to questions from journalists
0:41
who engaged him via online video call
0:45
this Ukraine said on Tuesday that it had
0:47
hit the bridge connecting Russia and the
0:49
occupied Crimean Peninsula with
0:51
explosives planted underwater in its
0:54
third attack on the vital supply line
0:56
for Moscow's forces since the full-scale
0:58
war began in 2022 according to CNN
1:02
according to CNN Ukraine's security
1:05
service the SBU said on Telegram that
1:09
its agents had mined the peers of the
1:11
Road and Rail Crimean Bridge also called
1:13
the Kirch Bridge and detonated the first
1:16
explosive at 4:44 a.m tuesday the whole
1:20
operation took several months it added
1:22
the agency said it had used 1,100 kg of
1:27
explosives which severely damaged the
1:29
underwater pillars supporting the bridge
1:32
traffic on the bridge was suspended
1:34
early Tuesday morning then again
1:36
midafter afternoon before resuming
1:38
shortly before 6:00 p.m local time
1:41
although the scale of the damage was not
1:43
immediately clear Tuesday's attack is
1:46
the latest example of the SBU's attempts
1:48
to blindside Moscow and demonstrate that
1:51
there are costs to continuing its war
1:54
president Zalinski on Monday and Tuesday
1:56
stated that right now in Sunumi region
1:59
doctors are providing all necessary
2:01
assistance to those wounded by a Russian
2:03
strike the Russians struck right on the
2:06
street hitting ordinary residential
2:08
buildings sleas bags there have been
2:11
virtually no days without killings
2:13
during this whole time while the United
2:16
States Europe and other global actors
2:18
have been urging Russia to agree to a
2:20
ceasefire and negotiations to end the
2:22
war but Russia remains fully committed
2:25
to war and they prove it with both their
2:28
strikes and their statements all of this
2:30
is the argument for new tougher
2:33
sanctions against Russia i'm grateful to
2:35
all Americans and Europeans who support
2:38
this approach of pressuring Russia into
2:40
peace it's extremely important russia
2:43
must feel what war truly means when
2:46
asked by journalists whether yesterday's
2:48
operation might enrage the Russians I
2:50
responded that just a day earlier Russia
2:53
had launched a massive overnight attack
2:55
on Ukraine over 480 drones and missiles
2:59
they struck civilian infrastructure
3:01
residential buildings there were
3:04
casualties people killed and injured
3:06
this happens every single day sometimes
3:09
there's a short pause and to be honest
3:12
we now call it a pause if there's just
3:14
no one killed that night but even then
3:18
drones still fly and people still get
3:20
wounded these so-called pauses just mean
3:23
fewer attacks than usual but we're still
3:26
talking about dozens of drones and
3:28
cruise missiles so no no one cares
3:31
whether Russia is angry what matters is
3:34
that Russia must move toward ending this
3:36
war and as a global community we must
3:39
all do what we can to stop them we are
3:42
very much awaiting strong steps from the
3:44
United States we hope he will support
3:47
sanctions and push Putin to stop this
3:49
war at least to take the first step
3:51
toward ending it a ceasefire these are
3:54
critical things i believe that from the
3:56
position of the US we will be able to
3:59
achieve this faster we had reported that
4:02
the Ukrainian president Vadimir Zalinski
4:05
has confirmed that Ukraine on Sunday
4:07
launched a large scale of multiple
4:10
drones to attack and destroy cruise
4:12
missiles war plane carriers stationed at
4:14
the military airfields of five Russian
4:16
cities of Merman Ausk Avanovo Ryazan and
4:21
the Moa regions with Zalinski saying
4:23
that it took Ukraine 1 year and 6 months
4:25
to plan and execute the attacks stating
4:28
that all those who were in Russia
4:30
territory ries that aided the successful
4:32
execution of the planned attack are safe
4:34
and they have all returned to Ukraine
4:41
mute the knees in a mortis
