Details
According to the president, repair work is ongoing in Odesa and the region following the strike on energy infrastructure. All necessary services have been engaged in restoring electricity supplies. Residential buildings and the port were also damaged as a result of the overnight attack.
All necessary services have been engaged, and the work will continue for as long as necessary. Residential buildings and the port were also damaged this night. In particular, this is how the Russians systematically wage war against global food security. As of now, eight people are known to have been injured. Everyone is receiving assistance. In Kharkiv, four floors of an ordinary residential high-rise building were destroyed by a direct drone strike. Dozens of people were injured, and two were killed. My condolences. In Pavlohrad, there was an absolutely brutal strike near a shopping center and against energy infrastructure. Nine people were injured in the city, including four children. There were also strikes in Zhytomyr, Mykolaiv, Kyiv, Kherson, Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk regions
The president emphasizes that Russia continues to rely on "ballistic terror, which is not limited to just one city or community".
In Ukraine alone, 61 missiles of various types were used this week, including 56 that attack along a ballistic trajectory. There were also more than 1,560 attack drones and 1,540 aerial bombs. Each such strike against life reminds us again and again: more pressure, more sanctions against Russia and more air defense for Ukraine are needed. I am grateful to those who help
We remind you
