Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi announced that the country’s defenders are shooting down a growing number of Russian missiles and drones targeting Ukrainian cities and critical infrastructure. “The percentage of accurate hits has increased, but there is still work to be done.

Zelensky accuses Iran of lying

Zelensky accused Iran of lying about supplying drones to Russia: “Iranian officials recognized, which supplied Russia with drones. But their confession was also a lie.

We shoot down at least ten Iranian drones every day, but the Iranian regime claims to have delivered a small number of drones to Russia and before a full-scale invasion.

If Iran continues to lie about the obvious, the world will make even greater efforts to investigate terrorist cooperation between the Russian and Iranian regimes and what Russia is paying Iran for such cooperation. “

Analysts from the US think tank Institute for the Study of War write that Tehran is exploiting Moscow’s dependence on Iran’s drone supplies in exchange for Russia’s help in developing the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program.

Electricity, heating and water supply were cut off in many places in Ukraine

Following Russia’s attacks on Ukraine’s critical infrastructure, residents in many parts of the country are forced to endure disruptions in electricity, heating and water supplies. Even Kiev, the capital of three million inhabitants, has not escaped this.

Mayor Vitaly Klitschko does not rule out the possibility that Kiev could be completely devoid of electricity, heating, water and communications, so he urged residents to prepare for the worst.

“We are doing everything to prevent this from happening. But let’s be honest: our enemies are doing everything to make the city without heating, without electricity, without water supply, so that we all die. And how prepared we are for the different situations depends on the country and the future of each of us. We do not rule out scenarios and we prepare to resist “, said Klitschko in an interview with TSN.

The mayor also called on the kiwis to stock up on water and food at home, wear warm clothes and charge reusable batteries and, if necessary, leave the city.
