"Almost every day and every night, our emergency services are dealing with the consequences of Russian shelling of peaceful Ukrainian cities and districts. This week alone, Russia launched more than 1,600 strike drones, about 1,200 guided aerial bombs, and nearly 70 missiles of various types at Ukraine. The main targets of these strikes are the infrastructure that supports normal life," the president said.
Night attack
Zelenskyy also spoke about today's Russian attack.
"More than 240 drones and five ballistic missiles, damage in seven regions. Unfortunately, there are casualties in Sloviansk and Chernihiv. My condolences to the families and loved ones," he said.
Strengthening air defence
The President stressed that Ukraine continues to work with its partners to strengthen our defences in response to these attacks.
