Since launching its invasion in February 2022 Russia has launched near-nightly bombardments of its neighbour’s towns and cities, raining down drones and missiles on military and civilian targets alike.
In the night the Russian army launched 477 drones and 60 missiles of various types, according to the Ukrainian air fosrce, which said it had intercepted 475 and 39 of those respectively.
Pointing to the bombardment, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky argued they showed that his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin “has long decided to pursue this war, despite the international community’s calls for peace”.
US President Donald Trump, who has tilted Washington’s policy on the war in favour of Moscow since retaking office, has not responded to Kyiv’s request.
Far from the frontline in the western Ivano-Frankivsk region, the strikes likewise wounded a woman who was “taken to hospital”, according to the regional governor Svitlana Onyshchuk.
Paying the pilot his respects, Zelensky said he was working to shoot down Russian projectiles before his death.
For its part the Russian army said it had intercepted three Ukrainian drones in the night of Saturday to Sunday.
