The President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky reported that Iranian drones launched 267 strike drones into Ukrainian territory in one day. This is the largest attack of its kind that has occurred since the beginning of military actions.
'Every day our people counter the aerial terror. On the eve of the third anniversary of the full-scale war, Russia used 267 strike drones against Ukraine. The largest attack since Iranian drones started hitting Ukrainian cities and villages,' the president wrote on social media on February 23.
The president noted that over the week, the occupiers launched another 1150 strike drones, guided bombs, and 35 rockets of various types.
Zelensky expressed gratitude to the Ukrainian military who participate in the defense: aviation, anti-aircraft missile forces, electronic warfare units, and mobile fire groups of the Air Forces and Defense Forces. He also thanked the rescuers of the State Emergency Service, medical workers, and the national police.
'Anyone who can help with air defense needs to work to strengthen the protection of people's lives,' Zelensky emphasized. He also stressed that achieving a lasting and just peace requires the unity of all of Ukraine's partners.
