President of Ukraine
Against this background, the head of state officially confirmed that literally a day before the new massive strike, Ukraine finally received all the necessary missiles — this helped significantly.
However, the issue of strengthening air defense always remains relevant, because Russian terror does not subside.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy added that within the framework of a special energy selector, he and his team will determine full details regarding the consequences of the attack and the necessary resources to restore the supply of electricity, heat, and water to people.
The most difficult situation so far is in Kyiv, with a significant number of residential buildings without heating, the president emphasized.
