We received reports from our warriors, from air defense on the downing of “Shaheds”, said the President of Ukraine.
“In the morning, we received reports from our warriors, from air defense on the downing of "Shaheds". There were 37 "Shaheds" in total during this one night. Some of them were shot down. But only part of them. Fortunately, people were not injured. There were hits in the southern areas - Odesa region, our ports.
We are doing our best with our partners to increase the supply of air defense systems. It is very important for the world not to get used to this Russian terror. Every hit is a common problem. Not only for Ukraine, but also for all those in the world whose stability Russia is trying to destroy by attacking our ports and infrastructure.
Now, for the Russian state, this is a battle not only against our freedom, not only against our state. Moscow is fighting a battle for a global catastrophe: these lunatics need the world food market to collapse - they need price crises, supply disruptions. Someone in Moscow thinks they can make money on this... Someone in Moscow hopes they will be able to bargain for something... These are very, very dangerous hopes”, - said Volodymyr Zelensky.
