This article reports on deadly Russian attacks in Ukraine that killed at least 35 people, including civilians and children, while also noting Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy sites. It uses official statements and international reactions—like those from the UN and EU—to emphasize Russia's responsibility for disproportionate violence against civilians and to frame Ukraine's retaliation as justified.
