Ordinary Ukrainian cities Kharkiv, Sumy, Dnipro.
Ordinary life, and Russian strikes that should never have happened.
Every day in Ukraine is marked by largescale attacks with strike drones, mostly Shahedsit was Iran that taught Russia how to produce such drones.

Ordinary residential buildings have been damaged, and so far eight people have been wounded, including a 12yearold girl.
No country should have to go through this. And against this backdrop, speaking about easing pressure on Russia, lifting sanctions, and so on, is definitely inappropriate and unhelpful.
