Massive Russian attack: 26 missiles, almost 600 drones — Zelensky calls for sanctions and strengthening air defense

Russian forces launched 12 missiles and nearly 26 drones, more than half of which were "Shaheeds," into Ukraine tonight, July 600. This was reported by Telegram President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi.

"This night, Russia struck from Kharkiv and Sumy regions to Lviv and Bukovina. There were 26 cruise missiles and 597 drones, more than half of them were "Shaheeds". More than 20 missiles and the vast majority of strike drones were neutralized. I thank our air defense forces for the result," — Zelensky said.

According to him, there were hits on civilian infrastructure, including residential buildings. As of now, 2 people are known to have died in Chernivtsi. About 20 more people injured as a result of the shelling are receiving all necessary assistance.

"The pace of Russia's air strikes requires quick decisions, and it can be brought down by sanctions now. We need tough secondary sanctions against everyone who helps Russia produce drones and make money from oil. We need more air defense and investment in interceptor drones, which are already showing good results," — added the President of Ukraine.
