More than 30 missiles were also used (by Russia)," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a statement on US social media company X.Zelenskyy said that air raid alerts remain in effect across most of Ukraine, and that at least 13 regions have come under attack.He argued the attacks send "an extremely clear signal about Russia’s priorities," accusing Moscow of not seeking to end the Ukraine war."And that means that the world is not putting enough pressure on Russia. Now is the time to respond. Russia must be pushed toward peace and guaranteed security," Zelenskyy went on to say, highlighting the need for air defense, funding for weapons procurement, and the supply of energy equipment.Acting Energy Minister Artem Nekrasov said at a briefing that the strikes forced nuclear power plants to reduce their generation capacity.(Footage by Danylo Antoniuk/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
