[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Last night, the Russian army carried out another massive attack on our energy infrastructure. Various facilities were targeted in several regions – Odesa, Poltava, Chernihiv, and Ternopil. In total, the Russians used nearly 70 missiles, both cruise and ballistic, as well as almost 200 attack drones. All of this was directed against infrastructure that ensures normal life. Currently, repair and restoration work is ongoing wherever needed. Unfortunately, ordinary residential buildings have also been damaged. In Kharkiv, a Russian missile hit close to an apartment building. People were injured. They are receiving the necessary assistance.

Today, F-16 fighter jets and Mirage aircraft provided by France were used to protect Ukrainian skies. In particular, the Mirages successfully intercepted Russian cruise missiles. Thank you! I also want to recognize the performance of our anti-aircraft missile forces, army aviation, all our electronic warfare units, and mobile fire groups.

The first steps toward real peace must include forcing the sole source of this war, Russia, to stop such attacks against life. And this is something that can be effectively monitored. Silence in the skies – banning the use of missiles, long-range drones, and aerial bombs. And silence at sea – a real guarantee of normal navigation. Ukraine is ready to pursue the path to peace, and it is Ukraine that strives for peace from the very first second of this war. The task is to force Russia to stop the war.

@alastgleaming @ZelenskyyUa @EmmanuelMacron Absolutely...I totally agree 🙏

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

I am grateful to @EmmanuelMacron for his clear vision and our joint efforts to achieve peace. Peace must be real, not just a word—it cannot mean Ukraine’s capitulation or collapse. It must be just, reliable, and lasting, and this can only be achieved through strong and long-term security guarantees — for Ukraine, Europe, and the entire world.

We deeply appreciate the leadership and efforts of all those supporting Ukraine and strengthening Europe’s defense capabilities. Looking forward to working jointly on the steps toward peace in the upcoming days.

@lostinadream26 @alastgleaming @ZelenskyyUa @EmmanuelMacron Absolute rubbish

[Daniel Asher in solidarity 🗽✊🇺🇦🇨🇦 @abstractedaway]

@ZelenskyyUa @EmmanuelMacron @EmmanuelMacron, Ukraine is vastly deserving of being under the European nuclear umbrella you propose. The Budapest Memorandum has been an utter betrayal. Ukraine deserves nuclear defense.

@patriotmary4 @ZelenskyyUa A very typical "insular" attitude of America...very predictable and blindsided.

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@Tahawar_Tamimi @ZelenskyyUa Oh please.. I've never heard such utter rubbish- join Russia indeed!

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@Tahawar_Tamimi @ZelenskyyUa What absolute rubbish!

@RichardEGrant 💖💙 such beautifull memories with a touching vibe 👌👌

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@RichardEGrant These dark times will come but they will also pass - still every early days.
Sounds like that "hole digging" was good therapy for you...you actually as you said " dug your way out of it" and into the light again...not easy though I'm sure...

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@MirrorBreaking_ Very sad.....

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@RichardEGrant A lovely phrase Richard..."being scooped up and landed" etc. and from your friends perspective - I'm sure that "scooping up" and supporting you is an "unquestionable given"..wishing you continued strength to help you tread through each day...

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@RichardEGrant Nothing like the rhythmic sound of the waves to enable reflection and soothe the soul 👌💙👌

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@SkyNewsBreak Always after " the horse has bolted"... just typical of this country. Should be immediate!

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@RichardEGrant Unimaginable how difficult this must have been for you. You'll never forget those painfull last days - her courage in the face of adversity but as important, take comfort from the many happy memories you shared together and the knowledge that she lives on in your lovely daughter.

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@ZaraPhillips Sorry "easy bit"..need to put my 👓on!

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@ZaraPhillips Typical man eh, the esdy bit!😉

[Romilla Jones @JonesRomilla]

@RichardEGrant I guess Richard, sometimes we can be in a reflective mood and think " no place like home" wherever that may be ....Only consolation might be that it's "warm pouring rain" out there on the Gold Coast where you are 😉

@SkyNewsBreak If people had actually listenned to Jeremy Hunt, he made it very clear that this is a DEBT owed to Iran ( despite what we feel about Iran) which needs to be paid and is NOT a Ransom! This poor woman and those others detained in Iran don't deserve to be pawns in a political game
