Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says the latest Russian airstrikes that killed at least 12 people demonstrate that Russia’s objectives remain “unchanged” and new sanctions are needed.
“Such strikes show that Russia’s goals are unchanged. Therefore, it is very important to continue to do everything to protect life, strengthen our air defense, and increase sanctions against Russia,” Zelensky writes on the Telegram social media channel about the overnight strikes.
