- Interceptors drones have started working, contributing to the protection of Ukrainian cities, with a plea for continued assistance in ballistic protection.
Ukraine is significantly strengthening its defense
According to the Ukrainian leader, firefighting and clearing of debris are still ongoing in various parts of the country after a new enemy air attack.
Zelensky draws the attention of the international community to the fact that this was one of the largest air strikes.
The Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine confirmed that Russia used 550 air attack weapons: these were Russian-Iranian “Shaheeds”, as well as missiles, including ballistic ones.
Moreover, the first air raid warnings in our cities and regions began yesterday almost simultaneously with the beginning of the discussion in the media of the telephone conversation between President Trump and Putin. Russia once again demonstrates that it is not going to end the war and terror. Only at about 9 am this day was the air raid warning canceled in Kyiv. A tough, sleepless night.

And it is very important that the support of partners in ballistic protection is maintained. Patriots and missiles are real defenders of life for them," Zelensky added.
