A 16-year-old boy died during an attack in the city of Chernihiv, northern Ukraine, as reported by the local administration chief Dmytro Bryjynsky on Sunday 19 April. “Four people were also injured: three women and one man,” the official added on Telegram, mentioning strikes that damaged 7 houses and two public buildings. The city’s energy infrastructure was severely hit by multiple rounds of attacks this week, leaving thousands of residents without electricity, according to local authorities.
During the night from Wednesday to Thursday, strikes had already caused 19 deaths in Ukraine, notably in Kiev and Odessa, with these attacks being among the deadliest in recent weeks. Negotiations between Moscow and Kiev to end the conflict in Ukraine have been at a standstill since the beginning of the Middle East war, triggered by Israeli-American strikes against Iran at the end of February, shifting the focus away from Washington.
