KYIV, Ukraine -- Moscow escalated its attacks in Ukraine on Saturday, with President Volodymyr Zelensky denouncing a deadly strike on a blood transfusion centre as a"war crime".
A"guided air bomb" hit the centre in Kupiansk, a city a few dozen kilometres from the Russian border, said Zelensky. The region, home to a major Ukrainian airbase, has been regularly targeted by Russian strikes in recent months. In a video obtained by AFP purporting to show the attack, a vessel is seen approaching a large ship before the connection cuts off.
Crimea has been disrupted by several strikes throughout the war but it has seen more frequent attacks in recent weeks.
