Our air defense forces and rescuers were working all night. The Russian army launched the largest number of drones against our cities and communities since the beginning of the full-scale war — 355 attack UAVs, mostly "Shaheds." There were also 9 cruise missiles. Sadly, there are injured people and damage to civilian infrastructure. The geography of last night’s strike stretched from the Chernihiv region to the Khmelnytskyi region and from the Kharkiv region to the Odesa region. This was already the third consecutive night of combined Russian terror — attack drones and missiles. Only a sense of total impunity can allow Russia to carry out such strikes and continue increasing their scale. There is no real military logic to this, but there is significant political meaning. In doing this, Putin shows just how much he despises the world — the world that spends more effort on “dialogue” with him than on real pressure. Like any criminal, Russia can only be constrained by force. Only through strength — the strength of the United States, of Europe, of all nations that value life — can these attacks be stopped and real peace achieved. The increase in Russian strikes should be met with increased sanctions. Russia’s disregard for diplomacy and refusal even to consider a ceasefire must be met with a freeze on Russian finances and a halt to its oil trade. I thank everyone around the world who is advocating for exactly this kind of strong agenda. Russia must end its war. And for that to happen, we must deprive them of the resources that fuel their will to fight.
