There will also be new talks to secure air defence packages to protect our country and our people."

Details: Zelenskyy said that on Sunday he received reports from Prime Minister Serhii Koretskyi and spoke with Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Mykhailo Drapatyi about protecting Ukrainian cities and responding to Russia.

"There will be a fully justified response. Every Russian strike will be met with our response. Russia's war will become increasingly tangible for them at home, in Russia," the president vowed.

Quote: "I thank the Armed Forces and the Security Service of Ukraine today: the operation targeting Russian oil refining continues, and it is having a significant impact on them. Russian air defence systems and radar stations have also been hit, as have Russian infrastructure facilities in the Azov and Black sea regions. The only reason this is still continuing is Russia's unwillingness to end this war."
