The two-day death toll from Russian strikes has risen to over 70 following a bomb attack in the east. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has linked the rising casualties directly to a lack of American support.
Zelenskiy framed the latest bombardment as evidence of US hesitation to intervene, sharpening tensions between the allies. He stated the United States remains unwilling to provide necessary aid.
The accusation marks a direct public rebuke of the United States, a key partner, during a period of heavy bombardment and diplomatic friction between Ukraine and its ally.
