00:00 Saturday, Moscow accused Ukraine of having perpetrated an air strike that led to the

00:04 death of about ten people in the Russian city of Belgorod.

00:08 The Russian Ministry of Defense has declared that this attack will not remain unpunished.

00:13 A strike that will not remain unpunished.

00:16 Moscow accused the Ukrainian army of launching an air strike against Belgorod, a Russian city

00:23 near the border, on Saturday, December 30 .

00:25 The strikes killed at least 14 people, including two children and 108 injured, the day after

00:30 a massive strike that killed 39 people in Ukraine.

00:34 According to the latest information, 12 adults and two children died in Belgorod, the Russian

00:40 Ministry of Emergency Situations indicated on Telegram, adding that 108 people, including

00:44 15 children, were injured.

00:46 Images posted show cars on fire, broken glass buildings, as well as

00:53 black smoke rising to the horizon.

00:55 Ukraine regularly conducts strikes in Russia, especially in the most remote regions of

01:00 its territory, but their balance is generally much lower.

01:03 The Ministry of Defense assured in a statement that this attack would not remain unpunished.

01:09 Missile rockets and debris.

01:11 Russian forces managed to intercept two missiles and, most of the rockets launched against

01:17 the city, assure the defense statement, which avoided an infinitely more serious balance.

01:22 But several missiles and debris rockets were shot down in Belgorod, it was indicated.

01:29 Russian President Vladimir Putin was informed of this attack on residential neighborhoods,

01:35 said spokesman for the Kremlin Dmitry Peskov, according to Russian agencies.

01:40 Kiev has not yet responded to Russian accusations.

01:43 Earlier, the governor of the Belgorod region, Vyacheslav Gladkov, had reported the death

01:50 of two children during a Ukrainian strike in the regional capital.

01:53 Authorities did not specify whether these victims were included in the report communicated

01:58 by the ministry or whether they were distinct strikes.

02:01 For his part, the governor of the Russian-frontal region of Bryansk, Alexander Bogomaz, had

02:08 stated that a Ukrainian attack had killed a child born in 2014.

02:12 Bodies cleared of debris.

02:14 Ukraine still had its deaths on Saturday, after intense strikes the day before on several

02:19 cities, including the capital Kiev.

02:21 The wave of attacks, one of the most violent since the beginning of the war, nearly two

02:27 years ago, targeted buildings, maternity hospitals and a shopping center, as well as

02:32 industrial and military infrastructure.

02:34 At present, there are unfortunately 39 deaths across the country, announced Saturday

02:41 the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, adding that a hundred people had been injured.

02:46 Nearly 120 cities and villages were affected, he said, specifying that the search operations

02:52 were continuing.

02:53 Only in Kiev, at least 16 people were killed on Friday, according to the local administration.

02:59 Bodies continued to be taken out of the rubble on Saturday in this city, where murderous attacks

03:05 had become more rare in recent months.

03:06 This attack was the most important in terms of civilian victims, said Saturday the mayor

03:12 of Kiev, Vitaly Klitschko, who declared that January 1 would be a "day of mourning".

03:18 For the spokesman for the Air Force, Yuri Ilya, it was the "most massive missile attack

03:24 of the conflict, with the exclusion of the first days of the war.

03:28 Exhaustion of Western aid.

03:30 Friday's Russian strikes have provoked firm international condemnation, the UN Secretary-General

03:37 rose against "terrible attacks".

03:39 These attacks come to close a difficult year for Ukraine, marked by the failure of its

03:44 summer counteroffensive and a momentum found by the forces of Moscow, who claimed this

03:48 week the takeover of the city of Marinka, on the front line.

03:52 News all the more worrying for Kiev that Western aid is beginning to run out, in Europe

03:57 as in the United States, showing the risk of a drought in the flow of ammunition and

04:02 funds.

04:03 Saturday, Volodymyr Zelensky launched a new call to his allies, ensuring that arming

04:08 Ukraine is a way to protect lives.

04:10 "Each demonstration of Russian terror proves that we cannot wait to provide assistance

04:15 to those who fight," he pleaded.

04:17 Words that echo those of his American counterpart Joe Biden, who had called on the

04:23 elected officials of his country to "act without further delay" to help Kiev.

04:27 Washington has just unlocked a new $250 million cut, the last without a new

04:33 vote in Congress, which refuses to allocate more aid.

04:38 Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, meanwhile, has put his veto on a new envelope of EU aid,

04:43 an opposition that the Europeans hope to settle at a summit early February 2024.
