Sybiga on Massive Shelling: Ukraine Attacked by Nearly 500 Russian Drones and Cruise Missiles

On April 3, Ukraine suffered a large-scale attack involving nearly 500 Russian drones and cruise missiles, according to Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga.

On April 3, Friday, Ukraine became the target of a massive attack that involved nearly half a thousand Russian drones and cruise missiles. This alarming news was announced by Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga via the social media platform X, as reported by Ukrinform.

As a result of these attacks, preliminary reports indicate that one person has died, while others have sustained injuries. A particularly tragic incident occurred in Obukhiv, where a drone struck a residential building, highlighting the peril faced by civilians amidst ongoing military actions.

Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiga expressed his conviction that terrorist Russia is deliberately conducting strikes during the day to maximize casualties and damage among the civilian population. He noted that such actions are indicative of Moscow's aggressive policy, which disregards human lives.

“This is how Moscow responds to Ukraine's proposals for an Easter ceasefire – with brutal attacks. Russian terrorists reject diplomacy and peaceful efforts. They must receive the decisive response they deserve,” emphasized Sybiga, stressing the need for an adequate reaction to aggression.

As reported by Ukrinform, following the massive attack that spanned the entire territory of Ukraine, an air alert was declared. This underscores the seriousness of the situation and the ongoing threats faced by the Ukrainian population in the context of the continuing war.

It is important to note that such attacks on civilian objects are violations of international humanitarian law and provoke outrage both within Ukraine and beyond its borders. The Ukrainian authorities are calling on the international community to take decisive action against Russia's aggression, which shows no regard for human lives and the safety of civilians.

This situation underscores the necessity for support from international partners for Ukraine as the country continues to fight against Russian aggression and strives to ensure the safety of its citizens. In the face of constant threats, it is vital that the global community does not remain indifferent and actively supports Ukraine's efforts in the struggle for peace and security.
