    1. Most likely it was a drone and we assume so, because the trajectory of the flight and the speed indicate that it was definitely not a missile.

    1. We could do much more to protect lives if the aviation of our European neighbours worked together with our F-16s and together with our air defence.
    2. More than a hundred missiles of various types and about a hundred Shahed drones. And like most previous Russian strikes, this one is just as sneaky, targeting critical civilian infrastructure.
    3. It was one of the biggest combined strikes. More than a hundred missiles of various types and about a hundred Shahed drones. And like most previous Russian strikes, this one is just as sneaky, targeting critical civilian infrastructure.

    1. We count on the support of our allies and will definitely make Russia pay.
    2. The energy infrastructure has once again become the target of Russian terrorists.
    3. In order to stop the barbaric shelling of Ukrainian cities, it is necessary to destroy the place from which the Russian missiles are launched.
