"Over 550 guided aerial bombs, nearly 550 strike drones, and more than 20 missiles of various types were used by the terrorists in just this one week," Zelenskyy noted.
Ukraine's President emphasized that last night, the Russians deployed over 110 drones against Ukraine.

This week, the occupiers used ballistic missiles to attack Kyiv and shelled Sumy, Kryvyi Rih, the Dnipropetrovsk, and the Donetsk regions.
