VLADIMIR Putin has killed five Ukrainian civilians in his latest overnight attacks just hours after labelling Kyiv as “terrorists”.

A tragic incident occurred in Chernihiv where a one-year-old child, their mother, and grandmother were among the casualties following relentless Russian drone attacks. In Kharkiv, 17 more individuals were left seriously injured.

At least six drones were used in the attack with residential homes left severely damaged, the regional governor of Chernihiv said on Telegram.

Another six were injured and rushed to hospital, he added.

The three generations of Ukrainians who died were reportedly crushed underneath their own home after a Russian Shahed kamikaze drone onslaught.

The attacks were seen as revenge from Putin after Ukrainian strikes destroyed his strategic bomber aircraft over the weekend.

The Kremlin dictator held a 75 minute phone call with Donald Trump on Wednesday as they discussed rising tensions in Ukraine.

Trump has disclosed that Putin feels he “must respond” to the bold drone attack on his aircraft, which incapacitated 30 percent of his nuclear strike aviation capabilities.

Operation Spiderweb was a bold Ukrainian drone offensive that successfully destroyed 41 Russian aircraft across four strategic airfields. This coordinated assault is being compared to some of the most daring missions of World War II.

A humiliated Putin accused Ukraine of being “terrorists” and citing civilian deaths in the strikes.

But Volodymyr Zelensky hit back at the tyrant’s comments and warned Putin “feels impunity” and “is showing the middle finger to the entire world”.

The Ukrainian leader also appeared to blame Trump for failing to pressure Putin.
