Last night, Russia launched another massive attack on Ukraine, using dozens of strike drones and nine ballistic missiles. This was reported by President Volodymyr Zelensky on social media.
According to him, one of the targets of the strike was Kyiv. The attack left several people dead and dozens wounded. The president expressed his condolences to the families of the victims and noted that almost every Russian strike is now combined and includes the use of ballistic missiles.
‘Since the beginning of this year, Russia has launched about 770 ballistic missiles and more than 50 “Kinzhal” missiles at Ukraine,’ Zelensky said.
He stressed that such attacks underscore the importance of obtaining additional air defence systems, in particular Patriot, to protect Ukrainian cities.
‘It is very important that partners who have the opportunity to do so implement what we have been discussing in recent days. No country should be left alone in the face of such evil,’ the head of state stressed.
Zelensky called on the United States, European countries and the G7 states to continue their cooperation and provide the necessary assistance to Ukraine. ‘Russian ballistics require a response from powerful countries in real cooperation to protect lives,’ the president said.
