A massive ⁠Russian strike on Ukraine on Tuesday ‍killed at least ‌three ‍people, including a four-year-old child, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said.

"This Russian strike sends an extremely clear signal about Russia's ⁠priorities. An attack was carried out essentially in the midst of negotiations aimed ‌at ending this war," he said in a post on ‍the Telegram ‍messaging app.

Zelenskiy ‍urged Ukraine's ⁠Western ‍partners to increase pressure on Moscow.
