The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, condemned in a message published on social networks, the new Russian mass attack began on Thursday evening on Friday with more than 400 drones and 40 missiles, as a result of which four people were killed, including three employees who came to repay fires in Kyiv and caused half hundreds of injuries. This is one of the largest quantities of drones registered in one attack.
“They attacked almost all of Ukraine: the regions of Voralia, Leopolis, Ternopil, Kiv, Sumy, Poltava, Dzhmelnitsky, Cherkazi and Cherniguiv,” wrote Zelenski in his social networks, where he also published photographs of residential areas raised by bombing. Zelensky adds that “some missiles and drones were demolished,” but “not everyone was intercepted.”
According to the part of the Ukrainian Air Force, Russia has released a total of 407 drones, between the shock -players “Shahed” and unplanned copies of them, of which 199 Kamikadze were neutralized. As for the missiles, the Russians used six ISKANDER-M or KN-23 ballistic missiles, 36 KH-101 cruise missiles, 2 ISKANDER-K cruise missiles and KH-31P missile.
Ukraine was able to bring down four of ballistic missiles (according to this part, the other two did not achieve their goals), 30 of the KH-101 cruise missiles and 2 ISKander-K cruise missiles.
The Ukrainian Air Force reported without indicating that the infrastructure achieved the fact that there was a direct impact in 13 places. Fragments of intercepted drones and missiles fell into 19 other places.
“Russia must pay for this,” he also wrote in his message Zelenski, who says that “now the moment”, when the United States, Europe and other countries of the world should “stop this war together, pressure on Russia”.
“If someone does not provide pressure and gives a war more time to kill people, this is complicity and responsibility,” said Zelenski that in recent weeks he had made repeated veiled hints for the absence of measures of the presidential administration Donald Trump to force Russia to accept high fire, which Kyiv, its European partners and the White House itself.
This Thursday is the first large -scale attack combined with drones and missiles, including ballistic missiles that Russia launches after The Ukrainian operation destroyed dozens of Russian military aircraft last Sunday.
The Russian Ministry of Defense, which usually denies attacks on civilians, assured that in its mass attack only directed against military goals “in response to the terrorist attacks of the Kyiv regime.” It is unclear whether this refers to the Ukrainian secret operation against strategic aviation bases, since Vladimir Putin is guilty of Kyiv’s terrorism for the softening of two trains last weekend with the balance of seven dead and more than a hundred wounded.
Also on Friday, Russia reported the demolition last night in several regions of the country of 174 Ukrainian drones.
