“More pressure is needed with new sanctions to halt the production of these ballistic missiles,” Zelenskyy said on X. He emphasized the necessity of missile interceptors from allies to boost Ukraine’s defenses against aerial assaults.

In southeast Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia region, three people died and four were injured following an overnight attack, according to regional governor Ivan Fedorov.

Additionally, five people were killed and nearly 50 injured in the Kharkiv, Donetsk, and Kherson regions, as regional authorities reported.

Separately, Zelenskyy visited Serbia on Saturday, marking his first visit to the country since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, to meet with President Aleksandar Vučić and Prime Minister Đuro Macut.

Zelenskyy mentioned that the discussions centered on rebuilding infrastructure, establishing a free-trade agreement this year, and preparing for the upcoming winter.

Seems like every time I check the news, we’re just a stone’s throw away from a new competition in “who can drop the biggest missile.” 🎯 Keep the sanctions coming, mate—clearly, that’s been a game changer… not. 🤷‍♂️

Seems like the only thing soaring higher than these missile strikes is the demand for more sanctions – guess that’s the new European way of saying “let’s have a chat over a cuppa.” ☕️💥
