Ukrainian President Zelenskyy has pleaded with allies for more air defence systems after Russian strike devastated a Dnipro apartment building as shelling continues across eastern Ukraine, with casualties reported on both sides.
Russia n attacks across eastern Ukraine killed at least 11 people on Saturday, while rescuers in the city of Dnipro dug through rubble after a Russia n strike ripped through a nine-story residential building, leaving one dead, officials said.
The shelling of the front-line village of Niu-York in the Donetsk region also wounded five people, Gov. Vadym Filashkin said. He said that Russian forces had shelled populated areas 13 times over the past 24 hours. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the Dnipro attack was a reminder to Ukraine’s allies that the country needed more air defence systems.“This is why we constantly remind all of our partners: only a sufficient amount of high-quality air defence systems, only a sufficient amount of determination from the world at large can stop Russian terror,” he said.
In its morning statement, the Russian Defence Ministry said that six Ukrainian drones had been shot down overnight over the country’s Tver, Bryansk and Belgorod regions, as well as over the Crimean Peninsula, which Moscow annexed from Ukraine in 2014. It didn't give information on the reported strike in the Kursk region.
