Russian bomb kills child, injures teen in massive attack. Terror of Ukrainian civilians continues.

A Russian guided aerial bomb strike killed a 9-year-old girl and wounded a 16-year-old boy in southeastern Zaporizhzhia Oblast during a massive overnight assault on Ukraine. 

Russian forces deliberately target civilians in Ukraine to inflict terror and break the resistance of Ukrainians, forcing them to accept Russian demands. The UN documented that between 13,000 and an estimated 40,000 civilians have died due to Russian attacks since 2022, however the exact number remains unknown as the hostilities continue. 
This also comes as the US representative to the UN threatened to withdraw from peace negotiations if Russia chooses to persist with the destructive war and refuses to cooperate. John Kelly urged Russian President Vladimir Putin to accept the current peace proposal, warning that failure to do so could lead to severe consequences for Russia, including economic damage and international isolation. 

Russian military forces conducted an extensive air assault on Ukraine during the night of 30-31 May, deploying over 100 drones and 5 missiles across the country, according to the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The attack involved 107 Shahed-type strike drones and various decoy unmanned aircraft, supplemented by two reactive strike UAVs of undetermined classification.

Russian forces also fired two S-300 surface-to-air guided missiles and three Kh-59/69 guided aviation missiles. Ukrainian air defense systems successfully intercepted 71 of the 114 launched weapons. 

The strikes primarily targeted the Sumy, Kharkiv, and Donetsk oblasts, located near the frontline. Ukrainian forces destroyed 42 UAVs through direct fire engagement, while electronic warfare systems suppressed an additional 30 drones that were “locationally lost.”

In Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Russian forces specifically targeted the village of Dolynka in Polohivskyi district using guided aerial bombs against residential area, according to the head of Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration. (ZRMA)

The attack killed a child, destroyed one house completely and damaged several buildings, vehicles, and agricultural structures through blast effects.

A 16-year-old boy who was injured in the strike remains in stable serious condition.

“Multiple injuries, amputation, contusion — the boy who suffered from the Russian shelling is in serious condition under the supervision of doctors,” wrote the head of ZRMA.

Russian forces conducted 628 separate strikes against 24 settlements in Zaporizhzhia Oblast over a 24-hour period. The attacks employed aviation, drones, rocket artillery, and conventional artillery systems.

Russia causes damage in agricultural areas

In northeastern Sumy Oblast, a drone attack struck a bread delivery vehicle in Nedryhailivska community, injuring the driver with shrapnel wounds requiring hospitalization. In Romenska community, drone hit a farm facility, resulting in a fire that killed livestock.

Trostyanetska community agricultural enterprises faced bombardment from two missiles and 13 drones, causing fires that destroyed enterprise buildings and transportation equipment.

The attacks ignite fires in Kharkiv

In eastern Kharkiv on the border with Russia, night strikes ignited fires across multiple districts. The Kyivskyi district saw an enterprise building roof burn across 250 square meters, while Shevchenkivskyi district experienced fires at a garage and two vehicles on enterprise grounds, according to regional emergency services.
