In a vain attempt to protect those inside the grand, columned theater from missile and airstrikes that Russia has rained down on cities, an enormous inscription reading “CHILDREN” in Russian was posted outside the building and was visible from the air.
The new reported death toll came a day after U.S. President Joe Biden and other leaders promised after meeting in Brussels that more military aid for Ukraine is coming. But they stopped short of providing heavy weaponry that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wants. NATO nations fear that providing planes, tanks and other hardware that Zelenskyy says is urgently needed could increase the risk of them being drawn into direct conflict with Russia.
Meanwhile, the vulnerable - the elderly, children and others unable to join millions of refugees heading westward - face food shortages in a country once known as the breadbasket for the world. Unable to sweep with lightning-quick speed into Kyiv, their apparent aim on Feb. 24 when the Kremlin launched the war, Russian forces are instead raining down shells and missiles on cities from afar. Kyiv, like other cities, has seen its population dramatically reduced in the vast refugee crisis that has seen more than 10 million displaced and at least 3.5 million fleeing the country entirely.
The invasion has sharpened an energy and moral dilemma for European nations that heat homes and power industries with Russian fossil fuels. Alarmed that the billions they pay can be channeled by the Kremlin toward its war effort, they're speeding up hunts for alternatives.
I thought the theater air strike was last week the one where it was clearly marked that there were children in there, is this another theater?
USA takes advantage of others mistakes. So Russian gas and oil is taboo now? No one wants it!! Antagonistic diplomatic relations aide them and their elites in getting rich!
Well ask cafreeland to tell her buddies Azov to let them leave.
