Address of the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi:

“Today, fourteen people were injured in Zaporizhzhia after a Russian strike. The demolition of rubble continues all day. We managed to save two people from under the rubble. Aerial bombs hit ordinary residential buildings, ordinary city objects.

Today, the Russians also struck Kharkiv Oblast, Donetsk Oblast, and Sumy Oblast with guided bombs. In particular, several residential buildings were damaged in Glukhiv. In Kharkiv Oblast, apartment buildings, energy infrastructure, and medical infrastructure were damaged.

And this is daily Russian terror. About a hundred guided aerial bombs are used by Russia against Ukraine every day. And this is a constant reminder to all our partners who can help that we need more long-range for Ukraine, we need more air defense for Ukraine, we need more sanctions against Russia.”

We believe in the Armed Forces of Ukraine! Together we are a force! Glory to Ukraine!
