"Since last evening alone, Russia has launched nearly 150 strike drones, aerial bombs, and missiles, targeting over ten of our regions. Combat operations are still ongoing against aerial targets that remain in the air. I thank the defenders of our skies for the shoot-downs and round-the-clock work to ensure our people's safety. These Russian strikes on Ukrainian lives can be stopped — with pressure, with sanctions, by blocking the occupiers’ access to the components they use to manufacture the means of this terror, by providing arms packages for Ukraine, and with a determination that must be unwavering," Zelensky said.
