Zinchenko: Save the Ukrainian children.
One of Ukraine’s best footballers, Oleksandr Zinchenko, has made an appeal to stop Russian aggression against his country, stressing that a large number of innocent people have been killed, including children.
The Manchester City player has posted a touching video on Instagram with horrifying footage of the war in Ukraine and called on Vladimir Putin to stop.
“I am Oleksandr Zinchenko, a footballer from Manchester City and Ukraine. I do not play only for this country, I am its citizen. My country is currently defending itself against Russian aggression. Thousands of people are dying. “Russian troops have already destroyed several cities, bombs and rockets are falling and hitting civilian homes.”
“I was born and raised in the Zhytomyr region. On March 8, Russian planes attacked Malyn, a town near Zhytomyr. “As a result of one of the airstrikes, a family of five was killed, along with a small child.”
“I beg you, speak loudly. Do not be silent until small children are dying every day. Please help us with your words and support. Stop Putin. “Let’s save the Ukrainian children,” Zinchenko said in a statement.
