Russia’s overnight attack on Dnipro and the region lasted more than six hours. A missile strike damaged an apartment block, with other civilian infrastructure also heavily hit. The attack also targeted energy facilities and residential buildings across the region. Drones struck Odesa as well, and one of the UAVs hit a vessel owned by China. The Russians could not have been unaware of what vessel was at sea. Overall, destruction was recorded across eight regions, and as of now, dozens of people across the country have been reported injured, including children. In total, the Russians used 524 attack drones and 22 missiles of various types in this strike – both ballistic and cruise missiles. Air raid alerts remain in effect across many border and frontline communities, but our services are operating wherever the security situation allows. Russia relies on ballistic missiles to strike people, and that is precisely why we in Europe must do everything possible to ensure reliable protection against this. Europe must have its own anti-ballistic systems and be self-sufficient in the face of these threats. We repeat once again: we need our own anti-ballistic capabilities and stronger Ukrainian air defense right now. This week will be focused on working with our partners to strengthen the protection of lives. I thank everyone already working on this together with Ukraine.

🇺🇦Ukrainian Defense Forces have taken fire control of a section of the Taganrog-Dzhankoy highway. This is the main land corridor into occupied Crimea. Just, wow.. 🫡
