Ukraine knows that Russia is planning new strikes, says President Zelenskyy, and warns defence forces, citizens to be prepared to work together as the conflict enters its 278th day Follow our live coverage: 👇
Ukraine's President Zelenskyy said the week to come could well be as difficult as the previous week. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Russia would launch new missile attacks on his country, and warned defence forces and citizens should be prepared to work together to withstand the consequences.
"We understand that the terrorists are planning new strikes. We know this for a fact," Zelenskyy said. "And as long as they have missiles, they, unfortunately, will not calm down." Zelenskyy said the week to come could well be as difficult as the previous week, when attacks on electricity infrastructure subjected Ukrainians to the most acute power cuts since Russian troops attacked in February.
"Our defence forces are getting ready. The entire country is getting ready," he said. "We have worked out all the scenarios, including with our partners."
