Zelensky urges West to act against ongoing Russian aggression

• Russia continues its attacks on Ukraine, confirmed President Volodymyr Zelensky, noting recent events in Kharkiv, where two people died and about 30 were injured.
• Ukrainian air defense has shot down over 2,300 drones and nine missiles of various types, including ballistic missiles, highlighting the scale of the threat.
• Zelensky calls on the USA and Europe to respond to Russia's actions, emphasizing the need for stable support for Ukraine.

"Russia is dragging out the war, and we are providing our partners with full information on the strikes the Russian army is carrying out and the actions it is preparing for. We expect a response from the United States, Europe and all our allies to this terror against our people," wrote Volodymyr Zelensky on social media.

In recent days, Russia attacked Kharkiv, resulting in the deaths of two people and approximately 30 injuries. The President expressed condolences to the families of the victims and gratitude to the rescuers and medics for their ongoing efforts on behalf of the citizens.

"Yesterday’s Russian strike on Kharkiv sadly took the lives of two people. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Around 30 people were wounded—all have received the necessary medical assistance. I thank our rescuers and medics who work every day for our people," he added.

Zelensky stressed the importance of stability and predictability in the support for Ukraine. He expressed gratitude to all countries that provide air defence systems and invest in Ukrainian defence production. "The stability and predictability of support for Ukraine are crucial," he emphasized.

According to last week's agreements, Ukraine and Russia have committed not to target each other's energy facilities. These agreements were reached with the mediation of the United States in Saudi Arabia. The Ukrainian President underscored that international support is crucial for the country's protection against further attacks.
