During this week, the russian army launched over 1,180 strike drones, 1,360 guided aerial bombs and 10 missiles of various types against Ukraine.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported this on Telegram.
"All night long, rescuers in Kyiv were extinguishing fires - houses and cars - after the attack of Russian drones on sleeping areas. Unfortunately, there are children and adults who were injured. Everyone was provided with the necessary assistance. There was a fire in Cherkasy - an ordinary dormitory was burning," Zelenskyy noted.
According to him, that night, the russians also struck the Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, Kyiv Regions with Shahed drones. In total, 165 UAVs were fired during the night, most of them were Iranian Shaheds. All morning, KAB strikes on the Donetsk and Sumy Regions continue.
"The Russians ask for silence on May 9, but they themselves strike at Ukraine every day. This is cynicism of the highest level. This week, Russia has used more than 1,180 strike drones, 1,360 guided bombs and 10 missiles of various types against Ukraine," Zelenskyy stressed.
The head of state said that Ukraine needs a real ceasefire and Kyiv is ready for it.
"We need a real ceasefire. Ukraine is ready for silence from any day, but at least for a month to end the war. If silence, then every day, if ceasefire, then not on their holidays, but every day," he added.

In addition, Cherkasy came under attack by russian UAVs last night. There is destruction in the city, one person was injured.
