Headline: RAW VIDEO: At least 25 killed in devastating Russian attack on western Ukrainian city of Ternopil

Caption: At least 25 people, including three children, were killed in a Russian drone and missile assault on Ternopil, in western Ukraine, overnight on Wednesday (19November2025), according to Ukrainian rescue services. The attack, which struck two residential blocks in Ternopil, also left at least 73 others wounded. It is one of the deadliest Russian strikes on western Ukraine since the full-scale war began in February 2022. Two other western areas, Lviv and Ivano-Frankivsk, were also hit, and a separate drone attack targeted three districts in the north-eastern city of Kharkiv, leaving more than 30 people injured. Ukraine’s energy ministry reported that power cuts had affected multiple regions across the country. President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Russia had launched over 470 drones and 47 missiles during the nationwide attack. In a plea for help in his country’s fight against Russia, Zelensky said: Every brazen attack against ordinary life indicates that the pressure on Russia is not enough. Action sanctions and aid to Ukraine can change this.” He added: “Russia should be held accountable for what it has done, and we should focus on everything that strengthens us and enables us to shoot down Russian missiles, damage Russian drones and stop the attacks. Thank you to everyone in the world who is helping.”
