Russians continue to shell Ukrainian civilian infrastructure. They did it before the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and do it later.
This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelensky. He explained that the invaders want to deprive people of normal living conditions.
“These attacks will continue. This is the nature of the terrorist actions of the Russian military and political leadership, their army and state. There is their desire to flood, turn off the electricity so people don't have a chance to live. They don't want people to even survive,” he said. Zelensky.
Millions of people without heat and water
The President said that Russia is trying to destroy life inside Ukraine. It does the same from the outside when it blocks ports and brings starvation to other states.
More than one and a half million subscribers of electricity were cut off by missile strikes. We understand that a subscriber is not just one person. These are people without heat, electricity, water, nothing. That is, these are schools (thousands of schools), universities, houses. The subscriber is a family. Imagine how much infrastructure was turned off, how many millions were turned off,” Zelensky said.
He added that the occupiers are hitting nuclear power plants, and there are 500 militants at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. They endanger Ukraine and the whole world.
“Grateful to the IAEA that they nevertheless drew fair conclusions. They did not interfere with Russia's pressure. They said that only complete demilitarization was needed. This is what we constantly talked about,” Zelensky said.
