The Ukrainian emergency service was affected

Meanwhile, the Russian army is deliberately affecting the Ukrainian state emergency service (SES): last week, Moscow forces damaged six fire rescue stations and this morning hit a station in the Zaporizhzia region, injuring 12 people. The Ukrainian Minister of Interior, Igor Klymenko, writes on Telegram, as reported by Ukrinform. «Russia is deliberately targeting those who save human lives. In one week, from 26 May to 2 June, the rescuers of the SES were affected by the enemy fire almost a dozen times », reads the note. “One of probably the most cynical assaults occurred this morning – continues the minister -. In Stepnohirsk, within the Zaporizhzia area, after Droni Kamikaze hit a rescue station, the invaders focused the rescuers a second time, hitting them as they evacuated the wounded … two autos had been broken and twelve rescuers had been injured and are receiving medical and psychological help “.

“The Russians are doing every part doable to keep away from a ceasefire and proceed the battle,” wrote the head of the Ukrainian Presidential Office on X, Andriy Yermakunderlining that “new sanctions are of elementary significance”. “Reasonableness shouldn’t be one thing that applies to Russia,” he added.

Uphill road for peace

The road to peace in Ukraine, in Efetti, appears to date still uphill. In the Memorandum delivered yesterday in Istanbul to Kiev negotiators, Russia places the revocation of martial law in Ukraine and the demobilization of the troops as a condition for a cease. Among the other options proposed by Moscow there is the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops by the regions partially occupied by Russian soldiers. Among the very hard requests made in the new round of direct negotiations there is also the end of foreign military aid. Also clash on the 339 children that Kiev claims in Ukraine: “We haven’t kidnapped them,” say the Russians. For his part, the US President Trump is available to the invitation of Erdogan to keep three -way peace talks in Türkiye with Russian and Ukrainian leaders. “It appears that the Russians are background, attempting to create a diplomatic picture” for the United States, without however acting concretely “: writes the pinnacle of the Ukrainian delegation on Facebook, the Minister of Defense Rustam Umbo.
