Ukrainian-US envoy tells Biden that “blood will be on his hands” if he does not send more weapons
A Ukrainian police officer lost his entire family, including his six-year-old daughter and six-week-old son, after they were shot dead along with their mother and grandparents that day. Russia invaded, it appeared today.
Oleg Fedko, 30, was on patrol when his loved ones were killed when soldiers opened fire on two cars on their way near Nova Kakhovka in southern Ukraine.
Ukrainian media report that Russian soldiers shot the family in the bombed Ukrainian region of Kherson, north of Crimea.
Six-year-old Sofia Fedko and her brother Ivan, who was just six weeks old, died with their mother Irina, 27, and two grandparents, both 56, on the first day of the conflict last Thursday.
Oleg’s brother Denis Fedko said he was talking to his mother on the phone at the time. “I talked to my mother,” he said, adding: “I kept hearing my mother shout that she had children. [in the car] and “How can you [do that]? ”.
Describing when the attack began, he said: “I heard little Vanya [Ivan] he cried loudly. He was only a month and a half old. And then I heard shots. Then there was silence, then shots again. There were two shots, each two to three shots long. I realized they were finishing them. ”
Reports say that Oleg Sr. was forced to take family members because his son was on duty.
On the same day, February 24, Russian troops entered the village of Veseloe, about 40 miles from the town of Kherson, and the family reportedly decided to flee the Russians again.
Local reports say that the first car managed to pass in front of Russian soldiers in the village of Veseloe. The second car didn’t have time.
The policeman “cannot remove the bodies of his relatives killed by Russian troops,” zaxid.net reported.
The tragedy is another example of how Putin’s war is being waged against all Ukrainians, including children.
The life of Polina’s brother and sister, the 10-year-old Ukrainian girl mad by Harry Potter who was shot dead by the Russians along with their parents, still hangs in the balance today like a little girl blown up by five others when a rocket struck is called a kindergarten.
Polina was among three members of the same family killed in her car by one of Putin’s sabotage and intelligence units operating in the capital on Saturday.
Anton Kudrin, his wife Svetlana Zapadinskaya and their middle daughter died in a hail of bullets, their eldest daughter Sofia and young son Semyon were injured and in critical condition in hospital, unaware that their family had been killed.

Sixteen children have been killed and 45 injured since last Thursday, and the death toll is expected to rise later today.

Grandparents Oleg Fedko, 56, and Anna Fedko, 56, also died, driving the family out of their southern city after the Russians invaded.
The brutal treatment suffered by the Russians by the children of Ukraine horrified the world, as it was also revealed that a child with gunshot wounds died on the way to the hospital after his ambulance was fired upon by the invaders.
Yesterday’s photos, depicting the senseless death of the so-called girl in pink pajamas with a unicorn, shocked the world. Surrounded by doctors and nurses, the six-year-old girl lay mortally wounded in a paramedic’s cart held by her blood-soaked father, one of the youngest victims of Putin’s murderous attack on her country.
A photo of the smiling pink-haired student Polina was shared yesterday by Vladimir Bondarenko, the deputy mayor of Kyiv. Mr Bondarenko said: “Her name was Polina.

At least one child hiding in the nursery was injured in the attack.
Chief Prosecutor Irina Venediktova said Alice, who was three months after her eighth birthday, died at a hospital Saturday after the attack in the small town of Okhtyrka, an hour’s drive from Ukraine’s northeastern border.
The Russian military has been accused of using cluster bombs in the attack, with a broken kindergarten showing signs of multiple bomb blasts. The Kremlin has denied the allegations.

The children who were not killed or injured are among more than 500,000 who are trying to flee Ukraine to the West – many have been forced to say goodbye to their fathers, who remain to fight.
Putin’s infamous war against the people of Ukraine was exposed in heartbreaking photos capturing the death of an innocent six-year-old child – named the girl in the pink pajamas with a unicorn – one of 16 children now killed in the conflict.
The disturbing photos outline the battle to save an unnamed little girl who was fatally wounded when the Russians shelled her apartment building in Mariupol on Sunday – and portrayed the horrific casualties the war inflicted on civilians, especially children.
During the rescue operation, a doctor in blue medical scrubs, pumping oxygen into the girl, turned to the AP photographer and said: “Show this to Putin: the eyes of this child and the crying doctors.”

A woman, who may be the child’s mother, reacted while paramedics resuscitated the girl, who was fatally wounded in a shooting in Mariupol yesterday. She clutches her blood-soaked hand to her mouth as she clutches the child’s belongings to the other, including shoes and a scarf.

Squeezing her bloodied hand to her mouth and wearing the child’s slippers, pompom scarf and hat, a woman, who may be her mother, was photographed trying to resuscitate the six-year-old in the back of an ambulance after the artillery strike.
The next photo, too vivid to be published, shows the girl’s father holding the hand of his lifeless child while the paramedic resuscitates her small body. He sobs while covered in something that looks like her blood.
A team of doctors then gently transports the child, who is still wearing his red-paired unicorn pajamas, to a hospital in the coastal town. Her bed linen was then cut so that a team of seven doctors worked on her body, which was still caught by the praying father.
The latest image shows the child only in a wheelchair in an empty ward that has been declared dead in a war that claimed at least 210 civilian lives by Sunday, including more than a dozen children.

Her death, as well as that of other children, reveals Putin’s dirty lie that he is not waging war against the Ukrainian people amid calls for him to be treated as a war criminal for his civilian bombings. Several nurseries and kindergartens were also damaged.
President Zelensky said in a televised address yesterday that 16 Ukrainian children had been killed and 45 wounded in the four days since the invasion began.
The little boy Mark Goncharuk was filmed running with others in a van to the Ukrainian border, fighting back tears as he recounted how his father stayed behind to help fight the Russians.
As tears streamed down his face, he said, “We left our father in Kyiv. He helps our heroes, our army and can even fight alone. The family was picked up by a Reuters team. Mark said, “We walked for three hours and planned to walk for three days. You saved us.
