Russian army launches 70 missiles, 200 drones on Ukraine

President Volodymyr Zelensky has confirmed another massive attack on Ukraine by the Russian Army.

In a post on his official X handle on Friday, Zelensky said the Russian Army “used nearly 70 missiles, both cruise and ballistic, as well as almost 200 attack drones” on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.

According to Zelensky, various facilities in several regions including Odesa, Poltava, Chernihiv, and Ternopil were targeted in the unfortunate attacks.

“Last night, the Russian army carried out another massive attack on our energy infrastructure.

“In total, the Russians used nearly 70 missiles, both cruise and ballistic, as well as almost 200 attack drones. All of this was directed against infrastructure that ensures normal life.

“Currently, repair and restoration work is ongoing wherever needed. Unfortunately, ordinary residential buildings have also been damaged.

“In Kharkiv, a Russian missile hit close to an apartment building. People were injured. They are receiving the necessary assistance”, he said in the X post.

This is coming barely 24 hours after a deadly attack on a Ukraine hotel that led to the death of at least four persons and injury of about 30 others.
