Calgary’s Ukrainian Community Protests Kyiv Bombing, 5 Children Dead

BREAKING: Members of Calgary’s Ukrainian community gathered on Stephen Avenue on Friday night to protest the devastating Russian drone and missile attack on Kyiv that resulted in the tragic deaths of at least five children. This attack is part of a disturbing trend, with over 30 people reported killed, marking a significant escalation in violence against civilians.
The rally, described as a day of mourning, comes as calls from western leaders for Russia to halt attacks on civilian areas go unheeded. Speaking at the event, Anna Tselukhina of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress – Calgary branch expressed the community’s anguish: “They don’t want to solve the problem the political way. They choose to bomb cities at night when people are asleep. We want the world to remember this and support Ukraine in any possible way.”
This incident marks the deadliest day for children in a single attack on Kyiv since aerial assaults began in October 2022. The emotional toll has left many in the Calgary community feeling helpless yet determined to amplify their voices in solidarity with those suffering in Ukraine.
The rally, attended by dozens, featured somber speeches and calls for international support, underscoring the urgent need for action to protect innocent lives. “This is not just a war; it’s a humanitarian crisis that requires immediate attention,” Tselukhina added.
As the situation develops, the Ukrainian community in Calgary urges local and international leaders to take decisive action against these attacks, which continue to threaten civilian lives across Ukraine.
Stay tuned for further updates on this unfolding situation as officials and community leaders work to rally support for Ukraine in the aftermath of this tragic event.
