President Zelenskiy says the missile attack on the military institute in Poltava was a premeditated attack. The attack killed at least 55 people and injured 328.

The missile attack on the Poltava Military Institute of Communications was calculated by Russia. The missile flew for about 3 minutes. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an interview with NBC News, according to a correspondent of UNN.

"Another tragedy in Ukraine. It was a missile strike, a calculated strike. The missile flew for about 3 minutes, so people did not have time to go down to the bomb shelter. It is believed that many of them were injured or killed at the moment of their descent into the bomb shelter," Zelensky said.
