Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported that repair crews, power engineers, and all necessary services are working in those regions where new damage and new outages occurred as a result of enemy shelling.
The President emphasized that overnight the enemy used 165 attack drones, about 100 of which were Shahed drones.
“And our partners must not forget that air defense is needed every day, funds for the production of interceptor drones are needed every day, and equipment for the energy sector is needed every day. We will work over the coming weeks with our European and American partners so that Ukraine has the necessary assistance. I thank everyone who supports our state and our people”, — the President of Ukraine stated.
