Over the past week, 15 of our regions have come under attack from Russia.
This was reported by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on his Telegram channel, according to Censor.NET.
Shelling
According to him, shelling of Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv and Sumy has been recorded on an almost daily basis.
"The Russians are using various types of weapons to strike at people, ordinary residential buildings and our civilian infrastructure. Unfortunately, there are victims of this terror almost every day. And the threat of these Russian attacks remains constant. In the space of just one week, there were around 1,400 attack drones, nearly 1,500 guided aerial bombs and 19 missiles of various types, including ballistic missiles," the statement reads.
Strengthening air defence
According to him, strengthening air defence – particularly anti-ballistic defence – developing cooperation under the Drone Deal framework, and increasing pressure on the aggressor are priority areas.
"Sanctions against Russia and its partners over this war must be applied precisely where they will have the greatest impact. Strong and swift measures are needed to force Russia to move towards ending this war. Anything that strengthens Ukraine helps bring peace closer. Thank you to everyone who is helping us," Zelenskyy concluded.
