Zelenskyy's announcement came hours after a US official revealed that the longer-range ballistic missiles sought for months by Kyiv and promised by US PresidentUkraine's Special Operations Forces claimed it destroyed nine Russian helicopters at two airfields in Russia-occupied regions in a nighttime attack on targets in eastern and southern Ukraine.
Ukrainian students, who lost relatives due to the Russia-Ukrainian war set flags in their memory on the memorial of fallen Ukrainian soldiers, while attending the reconstruction of a student-led protest campaign "Revolution on Granite" on Independence square in Kyiv, Ukraine, Tuesday, Oct. 17, 2023.
The Ukrainian statement did not say how the targets were hit. Russian authorities did not comment on the report. It was not immediately possible to verify the two sides' battlefield claims. The attempt to storm Avdiivka, a heavily defended city that stands in the way of Moscow's ambition of securing control of the entire Donetsk region, is Moscow's most significant offensive operation in Ukraine since the start of the year, the UK defence ministry said on Tuesday.
