The main target of the attack was the energy sector, but residential buildings and railway were also damaged, he noted. “Moscow continues to invest in strikes more than in diplomacy,” Zelenskiy said, adding that this week alone, Russia launched more than 1,300 drones, more than 1,400 guided aerial bombs and 96 missiles against Ukraine. There was no immediate comment from Russia. (Agencies)
