PresidentDonald Trumpsaid Sunday he doesn't know "what the hell happened" to Russian President Vladimir Putin and that he is "not happy with what Putin is doing" after Moscow launched its largestaerial attackof its three-year war on Ukraine overnight. "I'm not happy with what Putin is doing. He's killing a lot of people, and I don't know what the hell happened to Putin. I've known him a long time. Always gotten along with him, but he's sending rockets into cities and killing people, and I don't like it at all," Trump told reporters in New Jersey on his way back to Washington. "We're in the middle of talking, and he's shooting rockets into Kyiv and other cities." Trump said he is "very surprised" about what transpired, though just a week ago, Russia launched itslargest drone attackagainst Ukraine — a day beforePutin and Trump spokeon the phone. "I don't like what Putin is doing, not even a little bit. He's killing people. And something happened to this guy, and I don't like it," Trump added Sunday. Trump's comments come after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday, "America's silence, and the silence of others in the world, only encourages Putin." At least 12 people were killed in the attacks across Ukraine, including children, officials said. Dozens more people were injured. Among those killed were three children from the same family in the Zhytomyr region — west of Kyiv — according to Ukraine's internal affairs minister, Ihor Klymenko. He said their parents were hospitalized where the mother remains in a serious condition. This story is breaking and will be updated. For more CNN news and newsletters create an account atCNN.com
