Ukraine’s Zelensky Blasts America’s “Silence” as Russia Launches Massive 367-Projectile Attack

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned what he called “the silence of America” following Russia’s devastating weekend assault that marked the war’s largest air raid in three years. The coordinated attack involved 298 drones and 69 missiles striking targets nationwide, killing at least 12 civilians including three children.
The timing of Zelensky’s criticism coincided with Kyiv Day celebrations, forcing exhausted residents to seek shelter in bunkers, metro stations, and basements instead of commemorating their capital city. Ukrainian officials described the strikes as “terrorist attacks” and called for immediate new sanctions against Russia, emphasizing that Moscow launched the projectiles in multiple waves across the country.
Zelensky’s frustration appears directed at President Trump’s recent decision to decline imposing additional sanctions on Russia for refusing an immediate ceasefire. The Ukrainian leader’s chief of staff warned that “without pressure, nothing will change” and predicted Russia would continue building forces for potential attacks on Western countries. This diplomatic tension emerges as Ukraine and European allies push for a 30-day ceasefire as a preliminary step toward peace negotiations.
