On April 4, the Russian army shelled Kryvyi Rih with a ballistic missile, resulting in the death of 20 people and injury to over 80. The Ukrainian Armed Forces responded to this attack. The head of the Defense Council of Kryvyi Rih, Oleksandr Vilkul, published a video showing the military's reaction.
«For Kryvbas! For the children! For all of Ukraine! The 151st separate mechanized brigade strikes at the enemy both from the ground and from the air. We are grateful to the artillerymen, mortarmen, and helicopter pilots - to all our Defenders!»
The video also showed that the 40th separate artillery brigade and the OUV 'Tavriya' responded to Russia for each killed child. Oleksandr Vilkul noted that this is punishment for every innocent victim taken by the aggressor.
As a result of the rocket attack on April 4, 20 people died, and one more died in the hospital on April 6. This attack was the deadliest as it resulted in the deaths of many children. The UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission commented on the situation.
Marc Burns, spiritual advisor to US President Donald Trump, strongly condemned the attack on Kryvyi Rih and called on the world to support Ukraine.
