Russia President Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that the Dnipro strike served as a warning to Ukraine’s partners that the country required additional air defense systems.
The Ukrainian air force announced Saturday that it shot down ten Russian drones overnight.
“This is why we constantly remind all of our partners: only a sufficient amount of high-quality air defense systems, only a sufficient amount of determination from the world at large can stop Russian terror,” he said.
Russian attacks in eastern Ukraine killed at least 11 people on Saturday, while rescuers in the city of Dnipro sifted through rubble after a Russian strike blew down a nine-story residential structure, killing one, according to officials.
The attacks occurred as Russia continued to spread Ukrainian forces across the 1,000-kilometer (600-mile) front. Moscow has increased air raids in an effort to drain Ukraine’s resources, frequently targeting energy installations and other critical infrastructure.
The shelling of the front-line village of Niu-York in the Donetsk region injured five persons, according to Governor Vadym Filashkin. He claimed that the Russian military had shelled inhabited areas 13 times in the last 24 hours.
