The Foreign Minister said that Russian ballistic missiles are a real problem in this war. Recently, Russia has mainly used them to destroy Ukraine's energy system.

Kuleba said that if another country suffered from such a scale of energy destruction, "it would look much, much worse than Ukraine". 

Background: The Defence Intelligence of Ukraine has obtained evidence that the Russians are using kamikaze drones over the nuclear reactors of the occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant.
