Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a social media statement that the number of people injured in Russia's attack on a university campus and its surrounding area yesterday evening had risen to 12. Zelensky said five of the injured were university students or staff members, adding that Russia launched another ballistic missile attack while emergency crews were responding.

Zelensky stated that a total of 16 ballistic missiles and more than 280 drones were used throughout the night. He reported that strikes had hit Kyiv and that the Southern Bridge had also been affected by the attacks.

Zelensky said attacks had occurred in the Kyiv region as well as in Vinnytsia, Zaporizhzhia, Dnipro, Kharkiv, Odesa, Chernihiv, Sumy, Donetsk, Kherson and Bukovyna. He alleged that Russia had targeted energy facilities, logistics infrastructure and infrastructure in civilian residential areas.

Addressing delays in the delivery of interceptor missiles for air defense systems, Zelensky argued that the failure to deliver ammunition for Patriot and NASAMS systems on time had increased the impact of Russian attacks.

Stating that Russia continued its attacks, Zelensky called for increased pressure on Russia and concrete support for Ukraine to change the situation. He emphasized the importance of delivering assistance packages on time and thanked those supporting Ukraine.
