Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has condemned a record number drone attacks on his country launched by Russia.
“Last night, Russia launched a record 145 Shaheds and other strike drones against Ukraine,” Zelensky posted on X on Sunday, referring to Iranian-made kamikaze drones.
Russia has attacked Ukraine over the week with more than 800 guided aerial bombs, around 600 strike drones and nearly 20 missiles of various types, Zelensky said.
“Such terror cannot be stopped with words, and the killing of children and the loss of loved ones cannot simply be forgotten.
“Security from terror is impossible without bold decisions—this is clear for every country.
“Without justice, there is no lasting peace, and it is quite realistic for Ukraine to achieve it,” the Ukrainian president wrote.
Russia has been regularly bombarding Ukraine since it launched a full-scale invasion of its neighbouring country in February 2022.
