Zelensky:

First of all, today our gratitude goes to each of our warriors and all those who work in our defense industry for striking Russian airfields, oil refineries, and logistics. It is most effective when the consequences of the Russian war are brought back home to Russia, and when the enemy has no place of peace in the occupied territories of our country. Today, Commander-in-Chief Syrskyi reported to me on the details of these strikes. Warriors, I thank everyone involved.

And we continue to tell our partners absolutely clearly that Ukraine needs to carry out strikes — really long-range strikes against the Russian occupier. Wherever the occupier is, wherever Russia strikes Ukraine from, wherever it launches missiles, "Shahed" drones, bombs from. We need this decision so that we can use all the weapons that can be effective.

We must protect the lives of our people and end the war on Ukrainian terms, and every strike that accurately responds to Russia's aerial bombs, that destroys Russian logistics and bases, that makes it more difficult for the occupier to stay on our land — every such strike brings the just end to the war closer. The just one for Ukraine and for all who value life.

I thank every one of our warriors in the Armed Forces, in Intelligence, and in the Security Service of Ukraine who ensures this with the forces we have and provides us with such necessary long-range results.
