Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Russia has introduced “more than 30” drones over Ukraine in two days.
In his overnight speech, the president posed with an Iranian-made drone and claimed that so far Russia has carried out 4,500 missile movements and more than 8,000 airstrikes in the war.
“But we are fighting, we are going to overthrow more,” he added.
He also vowed that widespread Russian attacks on power plants would break the minds of Ukrainians.
Russia has smuggled dozens of missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles into Ukraine’s force network over the past two weeks, causing damage and leading to power cuts.
“The bombings will destroy us: listening to the anthem of the enemy on our land is scarier than the rockets of the enemy in our skies. We are afraid of the dark,” he said.
Meanwhile, a senior official said Kyiv and four regions would likely have to cut off electrical power materials for longer than expected after the Russian strikes.
Last week, local officials said the southern Ukrainian city had been targeted by “kamikaze” drones.
While on the line in the Zaporizhzhia area, Ukrainian servicemen were photographed firing a projectile from an FH-70 towed howitzer into a line.
“There was a feeling this could happen, but no one said it could do it out loud. “
The Ukrainian military relies heavily on Elon Musk’s SpaceX for high-speed transmission from its Starlink satellite network in low-Earth orbit.
U. S. corporations like Maxar capture photographs of the war from orbiting satellites.
And tens of thousands of communication devices in Ukraine rely on the Iridium satellite network of U. S. satellite communications.
SpaceX’s Starlink network is made up of about 3,000 satellites, and there are several dozen U. S. advertising imaging satellites. U. S. citizens looking at Russia and Ukraine.
Joe Biden expressed skepticism in an interview about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s comment that he did not aim to employ a nuclear weapon in Ukraine.
In a speech earlier in the day, Mr Putin downplayed a nuclear confrontation with the West, insisting that Russia had threatened to use nuclear weapons and had only responded to nuclear “blackmail” by Western leaders.
But in an interview with NewsNation, Biden said, “If he doesn’t intend to, why does he keep talking about it?
“Why is he talking about the option of a tactical nuclear weapon?”Biden said in an interview with NewsNation, “He’s been very damaging in the way this is addressed.
In recent weeks, Putin and other Russian officials have continually said that Russia could use nuclear weapons for its territorial integrity, comments interpreted in the West as implicit threats to use them to preserve parts of Ukraine that Russia claims to have annexed.
Ukrainian forces attacked Russia’s control over the southern city of Kherson tonight as fighting intensified in the east of the country.
The fighting comes as the Moscow-appointed government in the city abandoned it, joining tens of thousands of citizens who have fled to other Russian-controlled areas.
Ukrainian forces surrounded Kherson from the west and attacked Russia’s position on the western bank of the Dnieper, which divides the country.
Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin has said Moscow is not targeting nuclear weapons in Ukraine.
“We don’t see the need,” Putin told a convention of foreign policy experts. “It doesn’t make sense, neither political nor military. “
The Russian leader has also sought to portray the standoff as part of the West’s efforts to secure its global dominance.
Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, a close best friend of Russian President Vladimir Putin, said 23 of them were killed and 58 others wounded in a Ukrainian artillery attack this week.
In a post on Telegram, Kadyrov said the incident occurred in the southern Kherson region.
In case you missed it, Russian President Vladimir Putin has denied any nuclear weapons targets in Ukraine.
However, he described the clash in that country as a component of the West’s alleged efforts to secure its global dominance, which he said were doomed to failure.
Speaking at a convention of foreign policy experts, Putin said Russia could not attack Ukraine with nuclear weapons.
“We don’t see the need for it,” Putin said. It doesn’t make sense, neither political nor military. “
Putin said a previous warning that he was in a position to use “all available means to protect Russia” was not a nuclear sword blow, but only a reaction to Western statements about his imaginable use of nuclear weapons.
He spoke of Liz Truss saying in August that she would be willing to use nuclear weapons if she becomes British prime minister, and said he worried the Kremlin.
“What did we intend to think?” Putin said: “We saw this as a coordinated position, to blackmail us. “
John Kirby, spokesman for the U. S. National Security CouncilA U. S. citizen of the U. S. government responded to Mr. Kirby’s speech while in class.
“We don’t believe Mr. Putin’s strategic goals have replaced ici. Il he doesn’t need Ukraine to exist as a sovereign and independent nation-state,” Kirby said.
Sky News correspondents who have been at the front will join army experts to read about the past seven months in Ukraine and discuss the concept of modern warfare on a special occasion at the Imperial War Museum on Tuesday.
The occasion will be broadcast on Sky News from 7:30 p. m. m.

Tanks and missiles still wreak havoc on those living in the crossfire, but now drones and satellites seem just as effective. Verifying the fact has never been more important to combat misinformation and win hearts and minds, as wars spread over TikTok and Telegram.
The panel will ask what classes have been learned from the war so far. How can the history of the region give us a greater understanding of what is happening today?conflict?
