Rome, 21 Dec. (LaPresse) – "This week, Russia launched about 1,300 attack drones, nearly 1,200 guided aerial bombs and 9 missiles of various types across Ukraine. The Odessa region and our south have been particularly affected. Our services continue to work to restore normal life in the regions.‘ This was stated on Telegram by Ukrainian President Volodymir Zelensky. ’The negotiating teams from Ukraine and the United States continue to work on how to end this war with a dignified peace. And our long-term sanctions against Russia are working as they should. The aggressor must understand that war does not bring dividends, but always comes back to where it came from. Thank you to everyone who is helping Ukraine. We must strengthen our state's defensive capabilities so that diplomacy has a real chance of ending the bloodshed," he added.
