Ozzy Osbourne is looking to host two families of Ukrainian refugees at his Buckinghamshire estate, according to his wife Sharon.The couple are set to return to the UK permanently after living in Los Angeles for over 25 years. It comes after Sharon landed a new job at TalkTV, while Ozzy has expressed a desire to “come home” amid a series of health problems.During a new interview with The Sunday Times, Sharon criticised the UK government over the issues relating to processing refugees who have fled Ukraine as Russia’s invasion of the country continues.“I think it’s heinous what [Prime Minister Boris Johnson] is doing,” she told the publication.Asked if she and Ozzy would be rehoming any of the affected refugees, she replied that they were planning to welcome “two Ukrainian families into the unused properties” on their country estate.“Ozzy’s very well known in Ukraine, I think they’d be happy,” Sharon continued.Earlier this month, Ozzy and Sharon shared a joint video message in which they called on world leaders to pledge substantial support to those fleeing the country.
Ukraine breakfast briefing: Zelensky denounces Russian 'act of evil'
09.04.2022 - 07:35 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Ukraine's President Volodmyr Zelensky has denounced a missile strike on a train station where civilians were fleeing to safety as "an act of evil that has no limits”. At least 50 people - including five children - are reported to have been killed in the attack.
“Like the massacres in Bucha, like many other Russian war crimes, the missile attack on Kramatorsk should be one of the charges at the tribunal that must be held,” he said during his nightly video address to the nation. The president told Ukrainians that great efforts would be taken “to establish every minute of who did what, who gave what orders, where the missile came from, who transported it, who gave the command and how this strike was agreed”, so that those behind the attack would be held responsible.
However, Russia's Ministry of Foreign affairs has accused Ukraine of being responsible for the attack. On Twitter, it said "On April 8, the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) committed another War Crime by striking a railway station in Kramatorsk.
"The choice of the target was not random. The Kiev regime is striving to maximise the number of civilian victims."
It comes after Boris Johnson vowed that the attack will "not go unpunished". Speaking from from Downing Street on Friday, Mr Johnson said: "The attack at the train station in eastern Ukraine shows the depth to which Putin's once vaunted army has sunk.
"It is a war crime to indiscriminately attack civilians, and Russian crimes in Ukraine will not go unnoticed or unpunished."
