President Volodymyr Zelenskyi reacted to the tragedy.

Every day we call on the world to be decisive and strong enough for Ukraine to block these attacks on our people. Each new strike by Russia only confirms Putin's true intentions. He wants the war to continue. Talks about peace are not interesting to him. We must force Russia to a just peace by force.
