Following another massive Russian attack on Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Moscow has yet to show any signs of its intention to engage in meaningful negotiations and end the war.
According to Ukrinform, the President noted this on Facebook.
Zelensky stressed that last night the Russian army set one of its insane anti-records, striking civilian infrastructure, residential buildings, and our people.
“Several cruise missiles were lobbed against an American-owned enterprise in Zakarpattia. It was a regular civilian business, supported by American investment, producing everyday items like coffee machines. And yet, it was also a target for the Russians. This is very telling. The fire at the facility is still being extinguished. As of now, 15 people have been reported injured in the strike – all have received the necessary assistance,” the President mentioned.
Rescue workers are also working in many other regions, from Zaporizhzhia to Volyn. In total, 574 strike drones and 40 missiles were used against Ukraine during the night. A significant part of them were shot down. Unfortunately, not all of them, the President noted.
“And the Russians carried out this attack as if nothing has changed at all, as if there are no global efforts to stop this war. This requires a response. There is still no signal from Moscow that they truly intend to engage in substantive negotiations and end this war. Pressure is needed. Strong sanctions, strong tariffs. I thank everyone who is helping,” Zelensky emphasized.
As reported by Ukrinform, Air Defense Forces neutralized 546 Russian drones, one Kh-47M2 Kinzhal aeroballistic missile, 18 Kh-101 cruise missiles, and 12 Kalibr cruise missiles.
