Last night Russia attacked Ukraine and launched a record number of attack drones against our people - 188. This was announced by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
‘I am grateful to our defenders of the sky for repelling the attack: about 80 drones were shot down, more than 90 were lost locally. Unfortunately, there is damage to our critical infrastructure. The situation in Ternopil is difficult. All services and repair teams are on the ground, working and helping people. We are doing everything to restore electricity supply as soon as possible,’ the Head of State wrote.
He noted that each of the 188 drones contains 85 foreign components.
‘This is almost 16,000 components, without which they would not fly. Such attacks are possible only because the criminal circumvents sanctions, Russia circumvents sanctions through various schemes. We thank everyone in the world who blocks such supplies, but we need to work together more to make the sanctions work and force Russia to stop this war. We have to stop Russian aggression. If you are against the war, you must really be against Russia's circumvention of sanctions,’ the President wrote.
