Russia-Ukraine War: Russia is continuously launching fierce attacks on Ukraine. This was stated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy himself. Zelenskyy claimed that Russia launched 1,300 drones, approximately 1,200 guided bombs, and 9 missiles on Ukraine last week. Emphasizing the aid received from several countries, President Zelenskyy said on the social media platform X that the European Council has allocated 90 billion euros for 2026-27, along with aid packages from Norway and Japan, and a maritime drone agreement with Portugal.
What did Zelenskyy say?
Zelenskyy said, “The Odesa region and our south were particularly heavily attacked. Our services continue their work to restore normal life in these areas. We are countering this Russian terror on many levels. The Ukrainian and United States negotiating teams are working on ways to end this war with a dignified peace. The aggressor must understand that war brings no benefit and always returns to where it started. I thank everyone who is helping Ukraine. We must strengthen our country’s defense capabilities so that diplomacy has a chance to end the bloodshed.”
