Such attacks by the "Shahed" have no military meaning and cannot have any military meaning - this is terror, which is aimed solely at destroying lives, solely at intimidating people

- The President emphasized. 

The Head of State emphasized that the world should provide Ukraine with enough air defense systems, anti-Shaheddist systems and missiles.

Unfortunately, the delay in the supply of weapons for Ukraine, air defense systems to protect our people leads to such losses, to the fact that the list of children whose lives are taken by Russia is constantly growing
