Serhii Bratchuk in a comment to Ukrainska Pravda, Operational Command “Pivden” explained that the latest new missiles were the same type as those shot down the night before.
He also noted that both attacks were fired from a Russian coastal missile system into the Crimea.
“The enemy is trying to destroy the infrastructure of regions where there are no military operations as much as possible in order to exert psychological pressure on the population and undermine the economic and strategic reserves of the state.”
And he added that “The air defense forces have disrupted the implementation of insidious enemy plans.”
Ukraine needs prepared to fight Russia with shovels
Since Russia invaded Ukraine they have launched about 1,000 missiles at targets in Ukraine. And Ukraine desperately needs a more seamless air defense system.
Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said in an interview with German public TV that Ukraine will continue the fight.
“If we do not receive weapons, then we will fight with shovels, but we will defend ourselves because this is a war for our survival,” he said.
