Civilians flee eastern Ukraine after deadly railway station attack

KYIV, 10 April 2022, (TON): Evacuations resumed from Kramatorsk, in eastern Ukraine, where a missile strike killed 52 people at a railway station, as British Prime Minister Boris Johnson became the latest Western leader to visit Kyiv.

He said “hailing the country’s response to the Russian invasion, Johnson offered Ukraine armored vehicles and anti-ship missiles to help ensure, that the country will never be invaded again.”

He said “because of the invincible heroism and courage of President Volodymyr Zelensky and the Ukrainian people, Russia’s monstrous aims are being thwarted.”

A video released by Zelensky’s office showed him and Johnson walking through largely empty city streets to Kyiv’s historic Maidan Square, as snipers kept watch.

The two men greeted passersby, and one visibly emotional man called out to Johnson “we need you.”

Johnson, who a day earlier pledged to send Ukraine weaponry including Starstreak anti-aircraft missiles and 800 anti-tank missiles.

He added “the discovery of scores of civilian bodies in Ukrainian towns had “permanently polluted” Russian President Vladimir Putin’s reputation.”
