STORYLINE:
Two people were killed on Wednesday when the city of Kramatorsk in Ukraine’s Donetsk region was hit by two Russian missiles, according to police.
Both strikes hit residential buildings, according to Pavlo Diachenko, head of communications for Donetsk region police.
"In the first case, a five-story building was damaged, the one that you can see behind. In another case, it was a nine-story building. The five-story building was hit on its rooftop, and the nine-story building got hit in its central part," Diachenko said.
Diachenko said 15 people were injured in the missile strikes. Later, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine reported that 19 were injured.
Earlier in the day, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged global leaders to stand with his country and not seek “a lull” instead of a “real, just peace" more than two years into the war with Russia.
At a time when he faces growing pressure from Western allies and some of his fellow Ukrainians to negotiate a cease-fire, Zelenskyy told the U.N. General Assembly, there’s no alternative to the peace formula he presented two years ago.
It seeks the expulsion of all Russian forces from Ukraine, accountability for war crimes, release of prisoners of war and deportees, nuclear safety, energy and food security and more.
