Devastation in Ukraine: Three Lives Lost in Missile Attack
On March 5, 2025, a Russian missile struck the Central Hotel in Kryvyi Rih, the hometown of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The attack resulted in at least four deaths and left 30 others injured. Rescue teams worked tirelessly, extracting survivors from the rubble, while emergency services reported that 14 of the injured were in serious condition.
The Iskander missile caused a massive explosion, severely damaging the five-story building where both British and American aid workers were staying.
This incident underscores the grave consequences of reduced military support. The absence of U.S. aid has left Ukraine with diminished defensive capabilities, relying on rationed Patriot air defense missiles.
Proposals like the Europe-led “Sky Shield” initiative aim to protect major cities but are limited, especially against ballistic missiles. Ukraine’s critical need for U.S. military support remains pressing, with hopes for a change in the U.S. administration’s stance.
