"All this can be stopped only by one thing - only by more air defense systems, only by more long-range strikes on the places where Russian terrorists are based, on their air bases.

We are preparing for the NATO summit in Washington, in particular in terms of Petriots for Ukraine," Zelenskyy said during his evening video address.
