Ukraine’s military says it has struck the base of the Russian missile brigade behind Sunday’s devastating attack on Sumy.<\/p>\n

A Russian assault on the city killed 35 people and injured at least 119<\/a><\/strong>. Children were among the dead and wounded.<\/p>\n

The Ukrainian military has now said it has struck a base of “the 448th missile brigade of the Russian occupiers”.<\/p>\n

In a statement on messaging app Telegram, it said the base was “hit [and] a secondary detonation of ammunition was recorded”.<\/p>\n

“The results of the strike are being clarified,” it added.<\/p>\n

Volodymyr Zelenskyy<\/a><\/strong> previously shared videos of the aftermath of Russia’s Palm Sunday attack, showing dead bodies in the middle of a street in Sumy.<\/p>\n

The Ukrainian president said “only scoundrels can act like this” and called for “tough reaction from the world” in posts on social media.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Ukraine<\/strong><\/a>‘s foreign ministry said one of the children injured was a baby girl born this year, adding “even newborns are targets for Russia’s crimes”.<\/p>\n

NATO on Tuesday reaffirmed its “unwavering” support for Ukraine as the alliance’s secretary-general visited the country.<\/p>\n

As he met with Mr Zelenskyy at a hospital in Odesa, Mark Rutte said: “I’m here today because I believe Ukraine’s people deserve real peace, real safety and security in their country, in their homes.”<\/p>\n

Mr Rutte also said he and Mr Zelenskyy had discussed the Trump administration’s peace talks with both Russia and Ukraine.<\/p>\n

“These discussions are not easy – not least in the wake of this horrific violence – but we all support President Trump’s push for peace,” he said.<\/p>\n

His comment came after Mr Trump accused Ukraine<\/a><\/strong> of starting the war with Russia.<\/p>\n

Rebutting this, Mr Rutte added: “Russia is the aggressor, Russia started this war. There’s no doubt.”<\/p>\n

It also follows Russian and Ukrainian diplomats accusing each other of violating a tentative US-brokered deal to pause strikes on energy infrastructure.<\/p>\n

“The Ukrainians have been attacking us from the very beginning, every passing day, maybe with two or three exceptions,” Sergey Lavrov, Russia’s foreign minister, said, adding that Moscow would provide a list of Kyiv’s attacks from the past three weeks.<\/p>\n

Andrii Sybiha, his Ukrainian counterpart, dismissed the claim saying on Saturday that Russia launched “almost 70 missiles, over 2,200 [exploding] drones, and over 6,000 guided aerial bombs at Ukraine, mostly at civilians” since agreeing to the limited pause on strikes.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
