“Response efforts are still underway after last night's Russian shelling. The Vinnytsia, Dnipro, Kharkiv, and Odesa regions came under the heaviest attack. In particular, energy infrastructure was targeted - work is currently ongoing to restore everything in Kryvyi Rih as fully as possible, and power supply will be resumed during the day. Unfortunately, 15 people were injured, including one child. All are receiving the necessary medical care. I thank everyone who is eliminating the consequences of the strike, restoring power, and working for the sake of our people,” Zelensky said.

The President commended the efforts of the Air Force, Army Aviation, Naval Aviation, drone units, anti-aircraft missile troops, Navy air defense, mobile fire groups, and electronic warfare (EW) units of Ukraine's Defense Forces. Thanks to them, around 200 drones were shot down, and more than 140 others failed to reach their targets.

“Russia is not changing its strategy - and to counter this terror effectively, we need to systematically strengthen our defenses: more air defense systems, more interceptors, and more determination - so that Russia feels our response,” the President concluded.
