Kiev calls for urgent UN Security Council meeting after Russian attacks

Ukraine has called for an urgent UN Security Council meeting following a massive Russian attack that resulted in at least 20 deaths and over 80 injuries. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha condemned the attacks on residential buildings and civilian infrastructure, highlighting the widespread impact across the country. Specific incidents included a drone strike in Dnipro killing 15 and another in Kremenchuk resulting in three deaths. Sybiha accused Russia of violating international law and using its UN Security Council veto power to obstruct resolutions against its actions. He urged for increased international pressure on Russia and additional military support for Ukraine. The ongoing conflict, which began in February 2022, has escalated, leading to a humanitarian crisis and stalled peace negotiations, with a new round of talks scheduled for November in Abu Dhabi.
