Quote from Zelenskyy: "Russia itself chose to end the partial silence that had lasted for several days. Overnight, more than 200 attack drones were launched against Ukraine. Aerial bombs were used again on the front – more than 80 of them, and over 30 airstrikes were recorded. Attack drones were shot down in Dnipropetrovsk, Zhytomyr, Mykolaiv, Sumy, Kharkiv and Chernihiv oblasts, as well as in Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast. Energy facilities, apartment buildings and a kindergarten were damaged, and there was also a strike on an ordinary civilian locomotive on the railway... People have been reported injured as a result of these strikes. And, sadly, there are fatalities. My condolences to the family and loved ones."
