Zelenskyy called on partners to respond following Russia's strike on a school in Sumy

Russian troops launched an attack with four guided bombs on the center of Sumy. One of them struck a school building where classes were in session.

Private homes were also damaged. Emergency services are on the scene dealing with the aftermath of the attack.

Zelenskyy called on the U.S., Europe, and other partners to increase pressure on Russia in response to the strikes on civilian targets.

“To strike like this at children, at schools, at ordinary homes. America, Europe, and all our partners must not forget that Russia will not stop this madness without real pressure,” the president said.
