Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has issued a searing rebuke against Russia, Iran, and North Korea, calling them a “coalition of murderers” following a brutal aerial assault on Kyiv that left at least 10 people dead and multiple apartment buildings in ruins. During a high-stakes visit to London, where he met with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Zelenskyy pushed for stronger defense cooperation and fresh sanctions on Moscow.
The devastating attack, which involved 352 drones—many of them Iranian-made Shahed drones—and North Korean ballistic missiles, sparked international outrage. Zelenskyy described the strike as a “cynical act of terror,” warning neighboring countries to brace themselves if this dangerous alliance continues unchecked.
Amid the wreckage, haunting images showed rescue teams pulling survivors from collapsed buildings in Kyiv’s Shevchenkivskyi district, where a pregnant woman was among those saved. Zelenskyy also met with King Charles and visited Ukrainian troops training in the UK, reaffirming Kyiv’s resolve amid crumbling diplomatic support from Washington.
Zelenskyy’s next stop is The Hague, where he’s expected to push for unity at the upcoming NATO summit.
