Kyiv, May 1 -- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called for intensified global pressure and synchronised sanctions against Moscow following a massive overnight aerial assault targeting civilian residences and critical infrastructure across several regions.

In a post on X, the Ukrainian leader detailed the impact of the strikes, noting that "the Russians once again waged war against ordinary apartment buildings in Odesa", which resulted in five injuries and fires in two buildings. Highlighting the geographical extent of the aggression, he reported that "in Kryvyi Rih, one person was also injured as a result of a drone strike", while additional strikes were launched against the Sumy and Zaporizhzhia regions.
