Quote: "In this week alone, Russian terrorists used 65 different missiles and 178 attack drones against us, including 87 Shaheds. We managed to shoot down a significant number of them."

Details: Zelenskyy stressed that it is in the Ukrainian sky that Ukraine and its partners can prove that terror is losing.

"The responsible position of each partner in supplying air defence systems and missiles to them is very important," the President stressed.

"Complete protection against [Russian] terror is needed here, so that later there is no need to think about protecting other nations from it. Ukraine can win this battle, and our sky shield will eventually guarantee security for the whole of Europe," Zelenskyy said.
