00:08 on Wednesday, hitting an eight-floor apartment building and killing 17.
00:13 According to Ukrainian emergency services, at least 60, including three children, were
00:18 wounded in the morning attack.
00:20 "As you can see, the search is ongoing.
00:23 There may be people in the places where we marked, one person, one body has already been
00:30 taken, and the search is still ongoing, where other places are marked."
00:36 Ukrainian Ambassador to Indonesia Fasil Khamenin in Jakarta asked Indonesian people's support
00:41 to condemn the attack.
00:42 "Yesterday, the city of Chernihyu was attacked, and the casualties now amount to 17 or more
00:51 killed directly, and over 60 badly wounded, and the number is increasing because while
00:59 our rescuers are digging the debris and trying to save the people from the destroyed houses,
01:09 once again I express my hope that the people of Indonesia, Rakyat Indonesia, will condemn
01:15 the actions."
01:16 Chernihyu lies about 150 kilometers over 90 miles north of the capital Kyiv, near the
01:22 border with Russia and Belarus.
01:24 Chernihyu has a population of around 250,000.
01:30 The latest Russian bombardment came as the war stretched into its third year and approached
01:34 what could be a critical juncture as a lack of further military support from Ukraine's
01:38 Western partners increasingly leaves it at the mercy of the Kremlin's bigger forces.
